Foreign and Defense Ministers Meetings
Foreign and Defense Ministers Meetings
Throughout the year Foreign and Defense Ministers Meetings occur at NATO Headquarters in Brussels, bringing together the foreign and Defense ministers from each of the 28 member states. At these meetings the US Secretaries of State and Defense represent the US during discussions on NATO’s most pressing security challenges including Afghanistan, Capabilities, Kosovo, and Missile Defense. Generally attended also by many of NATO’s partners, these meetings are a chance for NATO to strengthen its relationships around the world.
Secretary of Defense, Leon Panetta, will be at NATO February 21-22, to meet with his fellow NATO ministers. Day 1 will focus on the NATO transformation agenda, discussing forces, capabilities, and funding. On day 2, the NATO-Ukraine Commission (NUC) will meet, as will ISAF contributing nations.
