NATO Countries: Sovereignty
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, what diplomatic steps she is taking to support the sovereignty of NATO allies.
Answered by Stephen Doughty
The UK is steadfast in its commitment to NATO. For over 75 years, NATO has kept us safe, prosperous and united.
Last week, the Foreign Secretary visited the Arctic Circle, where she emphasised that Arctic security is a critical transatlantic partnership issue for the security of the UK and NATO, and that we will tackle this emerging threat as an alliance.
We are committed to upholding the principles of the UN Charter, including sovereignty, territorial integrity, and the inviolability of borders.
Europeans continue to take greater responsibility for their own security, including through historic increases in defence spending.
