Stoltenberg&#8217;s successor when he steps down in October will take office at a crucial juncture, tasked with sustaining NATO members&#8217; support for Ukraine&#8217;s costly defence against Russia&#8217;s invasion while guarding against any escalation that would draw the alliance directly into a war with Moscow.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;President (Joe) Biden strongly endorses PM Rutte&#8217;s candidacy to be the next Secretary General of NATO,&#8221; a U.S. official said. &#8220;PM Rutte has a deep understanding of the importance of the alliance, is a natural leader and communicator, and his leadership would serve the Alliance well at this critical time.&#8221; Depending on the outcome of November&#8217;s U.S. presidential election, the next NATO boss may have to deal with a second term for Donald Trump, who drew fierce criticism from Western officials earlier this month for calling into question his commitment to defending NATO allies if re-elected.<\/p>\n<p>Founded in 1949 to counter the Soviet Union during the Cold War, NATO is a political and military alliance of countries from North America and Europe. Enshrined in Article 5 of its founding treaty is the principle of collective defence &#8211; the idea that an attack on one member is considered an attack on all. NATO leaders are appointed by consensus, meaning all members must consent to a final decision. The alliance currently has 31 members, with Sweden poised to join soon.<\/p>\n<p><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/uk-backs-dutch-pm-rutte-become-next-nato-chief-2024-02-22\/\">Read more&gt;&gt;<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/uk-backs-dutch-pm-rutte-become-next-nato-chief-2024-02-22\/\">Reuters<\/a> <\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/csr-news-en\/dutch-pm-rutte-in-strong-position-to-lead-nato-with-us-uk-french-and-german-backing\/\">Dutch PM Rutte in strong position to lead NATO with US, UK, French and German backing<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[555,1702,847,13520],"class_list":["post-125625","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-csr-news-en","tag-leader","tag-nato","tag-pm-rutte"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125625","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=125625"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/125625\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=125625"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=125625"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=125625"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
