NATO seminar on Turkey and EU security

The target of the seminar is to inform the non-governmental organizations about NATO’s renewal process and the role Turkey plays in that regard.

Developments in transatlantic relations, Turkey’s regard on these issues and interactive elements between the business world and security will be taken up in the seminar.

NATO Secretary General Robertson will address the seminar on "importance of Turkey for NATO and the role Turkey assumed in the development of the Alliance."

Issuing a statement, NATO focused on the central position which Turkey was gaining within the scope of the broadening agenda of NATO which necessitated having more interaction with concerned circles in Turkey and that the seminar would serve that goal. NATO recalled in its statement that NATO Istanbul summit would also be held next May.
