Among @NATO members "today there are disagreements on issues such as trade, energy, climate change and the Iran nuclear deal. These are serious issues with serious disagreements," says @jensstoltenberg in address to US Congress.
"We have overcome our disagreements in the past. And we must overcome our differences now because we will need our alliance even more in the future," adds @jensstoltenberg. "We face unprecedented challenges...that no one nation can face alone."
"We will need to continue to deal with a more assertive Russia," says @jensstoltenberg.

NATO : NICE OR NASTY?

Is @NATO there to keep fear away? Or does it create fear for pay?

Is it seeking peace, or profiting from the fear of war?

Is it a question of myriad paths & high salaries needing a new enemy? Or are they truly noble guardians barring an evil enemy's way?
NATO : NICE OR NASTY?

@NATO came into being after the North Atlantic Treaty was signed in 1949. The theory behind @NATO was that the twelve nations within it offered each other collective mutual defense in the event of a threat from an external aggressor.
NATO : NICE OR NASTY?

The principle potential enemy when NATO was first formed was the Soviet Union even though, whether believed by @NATO members of the time or not the leadership of the then Soviet Union had decided on peaceful relations with all others already in 1922.

#NATO summit: NATO leaders united in approving plans to bolster defenses against #Russia. (Earlier Trump slammed allies, called Germany "captive of Russia" b/c of energy deal. Actually, Russia needs that energy deal more than Germany) - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/world/europe/t…
FACT CHECK: Russia accounts for less than 20% of Germany’s energy needs

Trump falsely claimed Germany gets up to 70% of its energy from and is therefore “captive to Russia.” Nowhere near the truth, even w/ NordStream2 pipeline. snappytv.com/tc/8449919/592… #NATO #NATOsummit
#Russia's pipeline to #Germany that Trump seems to be so mad about, explained - The Washington Post washingtonpost.com/news/worldview… #NATO #NATOsummit #NordStream2
