SUBJECT: APRIL 3-4 NATO SUMMIT COMMUNIQUE PART 1 OF 2 
 
1. (U) The following communique was approved and released by 
NATO Heads of State and Government following the Summit of 
April 3-4: 
 
BEGIN TEXT: 
 
04 Apr. 2009 
 
Strasbourg / Kehl Summit Declaration Issued by the Heads of 
State and Government participating in the meeting of the 
North Atlantic Council in Strasbourg / Kehl on 4 April 2009 
 
1. We, the Heads of State and Government of the member 
countries of the North Atlantic Alliance, have gathered in 
Strasbourg and Kehl to celebrate the 60th anniversary of 
NATO. We have adopted a Declaration on Alliance Security 
which reaffirms the basic values, principles and purposes of 
our Alliance. We have launched the process to develop a new 
Strategic Concept which will define NATO's longer-term role 
in the new security environment of the 21st century. 
 
2. We warmly welcome Albania and Croatia into our Alliance. 
Our nations are united in democracy, individual liberty and 
the rule of law, and we reaffirm our adherence to the 
purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations. 
NATO contributes to stability and security, which are the 
essential foundations necessary to tackle the global 
financial hardships and uncertainty we face. Transatlantic 
cooperation remains essential to protect our peoples, defend 
our values, and meet common threats and challenges, from 
wherever they may come. 
 
3. The indivisibility of our security is a fundamental 
principle of the Alliance. We reaffirm our solidarity and our 
commitment to the cohesion of the Alliance. We are guided by 
these indispensable principles in all fields of our activity. 
A strong collective defence of our populations, territory and 
forces is the core purpose of the Alliance and remains our 
most important security task. NATO's ongoing transformation 
will strengthen the Alliance's ability to confront existing 
and emerging 21st century security threats, including by 
ensuring the provision of fully prepared and deployable 
forces able to conduct the full range of military operations 
and missions on and beyond its territory, on its periphery 
and at strategic distance. 
 
4. The venue of our meeting is a powerful symbol of Europe's 
post-World War II reconciliation. The end of the Cold War, 20 
years ago, opened the way towards the further consolidation 
of Europe into a continent that is truly whole, free and at 
peace. NATO has played, and will continue to play, an active 
role in that process, by engaging partner countries in 
dialogue and cooperation and keeping open the door to NATO 
membership in accordance with Article 10 of the Washington 
Treaty. 
 
5. We warmly welcome the French decision to fully participate 
in NATO structures; this will further contribute to a 
stronger Alliance. 
 
6. We express our heartfelt appreciation for the commitment 
and bravery of the more than 75,000 men and women from Allied 
and other nations who are serving in NATO's missions and 
operations. We extend our deepest sympathies to the families 
and loved ones of the injured and fallen; their sacrifices in 
 
USNATO 00000136  002 OF 009 
 
 
advancing the cause of freedom will not be in vain. 
 
7. Today we renew our commitment to a common approach to 
address the challenges to peace and security in the 
Euro-Atlantic area. We underscore that the existing 
structures - NATO, the European Union (EU), the Organization 
for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) and the Council 
of Europe - based on common values, continue to provide every 
opportunity for countries to engage substantively on 
Euro-Atlantic security with a broad acquis, established over 
decades, that includes respect for human rights; territorial 
integrity; the sovereignty of all states, including their 
right to decide their own security arrangements; and the 
requirement to fulfil international commitments and 
agreements. 
 
8. Within this framework, NATO and Allies are open to 
dialogue on a broad, cooperative approach to Euro-Atlantic 
security, for which the OSCE provides an appropriate, 
inclusive format. The common aim of such a dialogue should be 
to improve implementation of existing commitments and to 
continue to improve existing institutions and instruments so 
as to effectively promote our values and Euro-Atlantic 
security. 
 
9. Our security is closely tied to Afghanistan's security and 
stability. As such, our UN-mandated International Security 
Assistance Force mission (ISAF) in Afghanistan, comprising 42 
nations, is our key priority. We are working with the 
Government and people of Afghanistan, and with the 
international community under the leadership of the United 
Nations Assistance Mission in Afghanistan. Together, in a 
comprehensive approach combining military and civilian 
resources, we are helping the Government of Afghanistan build 
a secure, stable and democratic country, respectful of human 
rights. We stress the importance of the protection of women's 
rights. The international community aims to ensure that 
Al-Qaeda and other violent extremists cannot use Afghanistan 
and Pakistan as safe havens from which to launch terrorist 
attacks. Today we have issued a Summit Declaration on 
Afghanistan in which we reiterate our strategic vision and 
set out actions that demonstrate our resolve to support 
Afghanistan's long-term security and stability. Afghan 
ownership remains crucial for sustained progress. Strong 
constructive engagement by countries of the region is also 
critical and, to this end, we pledge to reinforce our 
cooperation with all Afghanistan's neighbours, especially 
Pakistan. We encourage further cooperation between 
Afghanistan and Pakistan, and welcome the results of the 
third Trilateral Summit in Ankara on 1 April 2009. We also 
welcome the outcome of the International Conference on 
Afghanistan in The Hague on 31 March 2009. 
 
10. Our commitment to regional security and stability 
throughout the Balkans remains steadfast. We praise the 
continued excellent work carried out by the robust 
UN-mandated NATO-led KFOR to help maintain a safe and secure 
environment and freedom of movement for all in Kosovo. We 
reiterate that KFOR will remain in Kosovo according to its 
operational mandate, on the basis of United Nations Security 
Council Resolution 1244, unless the Security Council decides 
otherwise, cooperating with all relevant actors, to support 
the development of a stable, democratic, multi-ethnic and 
peaceful Kosovo, as appropriate. We welcome the deployment of 
the European Union Rule of Law Mission in Kosovo, EULEX, and 
 
USNATO 00000136  003 OF 009 
 
 
encourage all actors to continue their efforts to facilitate 
the deployment and full operation of EULEX throughout Kosovo. 
The Alliance remains fully committed to supporting the 
establishment of the agreed multi-ethnic security structures 
in Kosovo. The standing down of the Kosovo Protection Corps, 
as well as the establishment of the Kosovo Security Force and 
civilian-led oversight, under NATO's close supervision, are 
in the interest of all parties. We welcome the progress made 
so far in Kosovo and expect full implementation of the 
existing commitments to standards, especially those related 
to the rule of law and regarding the protection of ethnic 
minorities and communities, as well as the protection of 
historical and religious sites, and to combating crime and 
corruption. We expect all parties concerned in Kosovo to make 
further progress towards the consolidation of peace and 
order. NATO will continue to assess developments on the 
ground in shaping future decisions. 
 
11. We reiterate our willingness to continue providing a 
broad range of training support to the Iraqi Security Forces 
through the NATO Training Mission in Iraq (NTM-I) and look 
forward to agreement on a revised legal framework as a matter 
of urgency. We recall our offer to the Government of Iraq of 
a Structured Cooperation Framework as a basis for developing 
a long-term relationship, and welcome the progress achieved 
towards that end. 
 
12. At the request of the United Nations Secretary-General 
and on the basis of relevant United Nations Security Council 
resolutions, NATO has taken action against piracy and armed 
robbery at sea. We have launched Operation Allied Protector 
aimed at conducting maritime operations off the Horn of 
Africa in order to help counter piracy and armed robbery at 
sea alongside the efforts of other nations and organisations, 
especially Combined Task Force 151 and the EU's ATALANTA 
operation, which are all complementary in nature. The Contact 
Group on Piracy off the Coast of Somalia plays an important 
role in order to facilitate coordination among all actors 
involved. Addressing the root causes of piracy requires a 
comprehensive approach by the international community. We are 
considering options for a possible long-term NATO role to 
combat piracy, including by taking into account, as 
appropriate, regional requests for maritime 
capacity-building. 
 
13. We remain deeply concerned by the continued violence and 
atrocities in Darfur and by the expulsion of humanitarian 
organisations from Sudan, and call on all parties to cease 
hostilities and negotiate in good faith. We are also 
concerned by the ongoing violence and the severe humanitarian 
crisis in Somalia. We stress the need for a political 
settlement and are encouraged by recent developments in the 
consolidation of state and government structures. At the 
request of the African Union (AU), NATO provided support to 
the AU Mission in Somalia through coordination of airlift and 
planning assistance. The Alliance is supporting the 
development of the AU's long-term peacekeeping capabilities, 
including the African Standby Force and its maritime 
dimension. Stressing the principle of African ownership, NATO 
remains ready to enhance its dialogue with the AU and 
consider further requests to support the AU, including for 
regional capacity-building. 
 
14. Our Alliance provides an essential transatlantic 
dimension to the response against terrorism. We condemn in 
 
USNATO 00000136  004 OF 009 
 
 
the strongest terms all acts of terrorism as criminal and 
unjustifiable, irrespective of their motivations or 
manifestations, and are determined to fight this scourge, 
individually and collectively, as long as necessary and in 
accordance with international law and principles of the UN 
Charter. Our nations will continue to contribute to the full 
implementation of relevant United Nations Security Council 
resolutions (UNSCR), in particular UNSCR 1373, as well as of 
the United Nations Global Counter- Terrorism Strategy. We 
deplore all loss of life and extend our sympathies to all 
those who have suffered from acts of terrorism. We reiterate 
our determination to protect against terrorist attacks 
against our populations, territories, infrastructure and 
forces, and to deal with the consequences of any such 
attacks. We will intensify our efforts to deny terrorists 
access to Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD) and their means 
of delivery as underscored in UNSCR 1540. We will continue to 
develop advanced technologies to help defend against 
terrorist attacks, and we appreciate the role of Partnership 
for Peace Training and Education Centres and our Centres of 
Excellence in addressing aspects of terrorism. We also remain 
committed to strengthening information and intelligence 
sharing on terrorism, particularly in support of NATO 
missions and operations. We continue to attach great 
importance to dialogue and cooperation with our partners in 
this important area, including in the framework of the 
Partnership Action Plan against Terrorism. We strongly 
condemn tactics such as suicide bombing and hostage taking; 
the recruitment, particularly of the young and disadvantaged, 
for these purposes; as well as terrorist abuse of freedoms 
inherent to democratic societies to spread hatred and incite 
violence. 
 
15. Since its activation in 2001, Operation Active Endeavour 
(OAE), our maritime operation in the Mediterranean which is 
conducted in the framework of Article 5 of the North Atlantic 
Treaty, has made a significant contribution to the fight 
against terrorism. We reiterate our commitment to OAE and 
welcome the continued support of partner countries whose 
contributions demonstrate both their engagement and NATO's 
added value in promoting regional security and stability. 
 
16. As NATO adapts to 21st century challenges in its 60th 
anniversary year, it is increasingly important that the 
Alliance communicates in an appropriate, timely, accurate and 
responsive manner on its evolving roles, objectives and 
missions. Strategic communications are an integral part of 
our efforts to achieve the Alliance's political and military 
objectives. We therefore welcome the improvements in NATO's 
strategic communications capability and public diplomacy 
efforts that we launched at our 2008 Bucharest Summit, 
particularly the enhancements to the NATO HQ Media Operations 
Centre, and the increased output of NATO's television channel 
on the internet. We underscore our commitment to support 
further improvement of our strategic communications by the 
time of our next Summit. 
 
17. We welcome the role of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly in 
promoting the Alliance's principles and values. We also 
appreciate the role of the Atlantic Treaty Association in 
fostering a better understanding of the Alliance and its 
objectives among our publics. 
 
18. Experience in the Balkans and Afghanistan demonstrates 
that today's security challenges require a comprehensive 
 
USNATO 00000136  005 OF 009 
 
 
approach by the international community, combining civil and 
military measures and coordination. Its effective 
implementation requires all international actors to 
contribute in a concerted effort, in a shared sense of 
openness and determination, taking into account their 
respective strengths and mandates. We welcome the significant 
progress achieved, in line with the Action Plan agreed at 
Bucharest, to improve NATO's own contribution to such a 
comprehensive approach, including through a more coherent 
application of its crisis management instruments and efforts 
to associate its military capabilities with civilian means. 
Progress includes NATO's active promotion of dialogue with 
relevant players on operations; the development of a database 
of national experts in reconstruction and stabilisation to 
advise NATO forces; and the involvement of selected 
international organisations, as appropriate, in NATO crisis 
management exercises. As part of the international 
community's efforts, we reaffirm our commitment to enhancing 
NATO's intrinsic contribution to a civil-military approach, 
and task the Council in Permanent Session to prepare an 
interim report for Foreign Ministers in December 2009 and to 
report at our next Summit on further progress with regard to 
the implementation of the Action Plan and NATO's ability to 
improve the delivery of stabilisation and reconstruction 
effects. We also encourage other actors to intensify their 
efforts in the same spirit. 
 
19. More than a decade of cooperation between NATO and the 
United Nations, especially in the Balkans and Afghanistan, 
has demonstrated the value of effective and efficient 
coordination between our two organisations. Last year's Joint 
UN-NATO Declaration represents a major step in our developing 
cooperation and will significantly contribute to addressing 
the threats and challenges faced by the international 
community. It also reaffirms our willingness to consider, 
within our respective mandates and capabilities, requests for 
assistance to regional and sub-regional organisations, as 
appropriate. We are committed to its full implementation in 
cooperation with the UN. We welcome progress achieved so far, 
particularly in enhancing dialogue and improving liaison 
arrangements, and look forward to a report on further 
progress at our next Summit. 
 
20. NATO and the EU share common values and strategic 
interests. In this light, NATO and the EU are working 
together and side by side in key crisis management operations 
and are cooperating, inter alia, in the fight against 
terrorism, in the development of coherent and mutually 
reinforcing military capabilities and in civil emergency 
planning, and will continue to do so. NATO recognises the 
importance of a stronger and more capable European defence, 
and welcomes the EU's efforts to strengthen its capabilities 
and its capacity to address common security challenges that 
both NATO and the EU face today. These developments have 
significant implications and relevance for the Alliance as a 
whole, which is why NATO stands ready to support and work 
with the EU in such mutually reinforcing efforts, recognising 
the ongoing concerns of Allies. Non-EU Allies have made, and 
continue to make, significant contributions to these efforts. 
In this context, we continue to believe it important that all 
possible efforts should be made by all those involved in 
these endeavours, and also to render possible the fullest 
involvement of non-EU Allies. Since we last met in Bucharest, 
various initiatives have been taken as part of the continuing 
effort to improve the NATO-EU strategic partnership, as 
 
USNATO 00000136  006 OF 009 
 
 
agreed by our two organisations. We are also willing to 
explore ways to further intensify work in the framework of 
the NATO- EU Capability Group. Success in these and future 
cooperative endeavours calls for enhanced mutual commitment 
to ensure effective methods of working together. We are 
therefore determined to improve the NATO-EU strategic 
partnership, as agreed by our two organisations, to achieve 
closer cooperation and greater efficiency, and to avoid 
unnecessary duplication in a spirit of transparency, 
respecting the autonomy of the two organisations. 
 
21. In accordance with Article 10 of the Washington Treaty, 
NATO's door will remain open to all European democracies 
which share the values of our Alliance, which are willing and 
able to assume the responsibilities and obligations of 
membership, and whose inclusion can contribute to common 
security and stability. 
 
22. We reiterate our agreement at the Bucharest Summit to 
extend an invitation to the former Yugoslav Republic of 
Macedonia as soon as a mutually acceptable solution to the 
name issue has been reached within the framework of the UN, 
and urge intensified efforts towards that goal. We will 
continue to support and assist the reform efforts of the 
Government of the former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia. We 
welcome the recent decision by the former Yugoslav Republic 
of Macedonia to increase its contribution to ISAF. 
 
23. We remain committed to the Balkans, which is a 
strategically important region, where Euro-Atlantic 
integration, based on democratic values and regional 
cooperation, remains necessary for lasting peace and 
stability. We acknowledge the important role played by the 
South East Europe Initiative and the Adriatic Charter in 
fostering regional cooperation, building confidence, and 
facilitating the Euro-Atlantic integration process of the 
Western Balkans. 
 
24. We welcome the Euro-Atlantic integration aspirations of 
Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro as well as progress 
made in NATO's Intensified Dialogue on membership issues with 
both countries. 
 
25. We welcome Montenegro's successful and active 
implementation of its current Individual Partnership Action 
Plan (IPAP) with NATO. We are encouraged by the reforms it 
has made in a number of areas that are essential to its 
Euro-Atlantic integration and also by its contributions to 
cooperation and security in the region. We are looking 
forward to Montenegro's further determined efforts in this 
regard. The Council in Permanent Session is keeping 
Montenegro's progress under active review and will respond 
early to its request to participate in the Membership Action 
Plan (MAP), on its own merits. 
 
26. We welcome progress in Bosnia and Herzegovina's 
cooperation with NATO, including through implementation of 
its current IPAP, and acknowledge the country's expressed 
intention to apply for MAP at an appropriate time. We welcome 
Bosnia and Herzegovina's decision to contribute to ISAF. We 
are encouraged by the ongoing political process, and urge 
that the widest possible consensus be found on the 
fundamental challenges facing the country. Nevertheless, we 
remain deeply concerned that irresponsible political rhetoric 
and actions continue to hinder substantive progress in 
 
USNATO 00000136  007 OF 009 
 
 
reform. We urge Bosnia and Herzegovina's political leaders to 
take further genuine steps to strengthen state-level 
institutions and reinvigorate the reform process to advance 
the country's Euro-Atlantic aspirations. 
 
27. We welcome Serbia's first Individual Partnership 
Programme with NATO as a sound basis for substantial 
practical cooperation. NATO welcomes, and continues to 
support, the Government's stated commitment to Serbia's 
integration into the Euro-Atlantic community of nations. We 
stand ready to further develop our partnership, in particular 
through elaboration of an IPAP and continued support to 
Serbia's defence reform efforts. All NATO partnership 
opportunities for political consultation and practical 
cooperation remain open to Serbia. The will and performance 
of the Serbian authorities are crucial for the further 
deepening of our partnership. We call upon Serbia to support 
further progress towards the consolidation of peace and order 
in Kosovo. 
 
28. We acknowledge the progress achieved in terms of 
cooperation with the International Criminal Tribunal for the 
former Yugoslavia (ICTY). However, Serbia must cooperate 
fully with ICTY, as must Bosnia and Herzegovina, and we will 
closely monitor their respective efforts in this regard. 
 
29. Stability and successful political and economic reform in 
Ukraine and Georgia are important to Euro- Atlantic security. 
At Bucharest we agreed that Ukraine and Georgia will become 
members of NATO and we reaffirm all elements of that decision 
as well as the decisions taken by our Ministers of Foreign 
Affairs last December. We are maximising our advice, 
assistance and support for their reform efforts in the 
framework of the NATO-Ukraine Commission and NATO-Georgia 
Commission, which play a central role in supervising the 
process set in hand at the Bucharest Summit. We welcome in 
particular the planned reinforcement of NATO's Information 
and Liaison Offices in Kyiv and Tbilisi. Without prejudice to 
further decisions which must be taken about MAP, the 
development of Annual National Programmes will help Georgia 
and Ukraine in advancing their reforms. The annual review of 
these programmes will allow us to continue to closely monitor 
Georgia and Ukraine's progress on reforms related to their 
aspirations for NATO membership. We also welcome the valuable 
contributions made by both countries to NATO's operations. 
 
30. We remain convinced that the mutually beneficial 
relationship between NATO and Ukraine, launched twelve years 
ago with the Distinctive Partnership, will continue to 
contribute to regional and Euro-Atlantic security. In this 
context, we appreciate Ukraine's valuable contributions to 
our common security, including through participation in 
NATO-led operations. We encourage Ukraine's continued efforts 
to promote regional security and cooperation. We underscore 
the importance of Ukraine's commitment to continue 
implementing needed political, economic, defence and security 
sector reforms, in order to achieve its Euro-Atlantic 
aspirations, and we will continue to provide assistance to 
this end. Political stability is of crucial importance to the 
successful implementation of these reforms. 
 
31. The NATO-Georgia relationship has deepened substantially 
in the past year. We remain committed to fostering political 
dialogue with, as well as providing assistance to Georgia. We 
strongly encourage Georgia to continue implementing all 
 
USNATO 00000136  008 OF 009 
 
 
necessary reforms, particularly democratic, electoral, and 
judicial reforms, in order to achieve its Euro-Atlantic 
aspirations. We reiterate our continued support for the 
territorial integrity and sovereignty of Georgia within its 
internationally recognised borders. 
 
32. We encourage all participants in the Geneva talks to play 
a constructive role as well as to continue working closely 
with the OSCE, UN and the EU to pursue peaceful conflict 
resolution on Georgia's territory. We welcome as a positive 
step the agreement reached in the framework of the Geneva 
talks on joint incident prevention and response mechanisms 
and we urge all the participants involved to engage in their 
rapid implementation. We note the renewal of the mandate for 
the UN Observer Mission in Georgia (UNOMIG) and the roll-over 
of the mandate for the OSCE Military Monitors. We call for a 
new mandate for the OSCE Mission to Georgia as well as for 
unimpeded access for UN, EU, and OSCE observers throughout 
all of Georgia, including the regions of South Ossetia and 
Abkhazia. We are concerned by the continued tensions and 
violence along the administrative boundary lines and call on 
all parties to demonstrate restraint. 
 
33. The NATO-Russia partnership was conceived as a strategic 
element in fostering security in the Euro- Atlantic area, and 
we remain committed to it. Dialogue and cooperation between 
NATO and Russia are important for our joint ability to meet 
effectively common security threats and challenges. We 
reaffirm the importance of upholding the common values and 
all the principles enshrined in the 1997 NATO-Russia Founding 
Act and the 2002 Rome Declaration by all members of the 
NATO-Russia Council. Our relations with Russia depend on 
trust and the fulfilment of commitments. Since our last 
Summit, dialogue and cooperation with Russia have suffered 
from profound disagreements on a number of issues. The 
Alliance will continue to assess developments in relations 
with Russia. 
 
34. We urge Russia to meet its commitments with respect to 
Georgia, as mediated by the European Union on 12 August2 and 
8 September 2008. In this context, we view Russia's 
withdrawal from the areas it has committed to leave as 
essential. We have welcomed steps taken to implement those 
commitments, but the withdrawal is still incomplete. The 
Alliance has condemned Russia's recognition of the South 
Ossetia and Abkhazia regions of Georgia as independent 
states, and continues to call on Russia to reverse its 
recognition which contravenes the founding values and 
principles of the NATO-Russia Council, the OSCE principles on 
which the security of Europe is based, and the United Nations 
Security Council resolutions regarding Georgia's territorial 
integrity, which Russia endorsed. In addition, the buildup of 
Russia's military presence in the Georgian regions of 
Abkhazia and South Ossetia without the consent of the 
Government of Georgia is of particular concern. 
 
35. Despite our current disagreements, Russia is of 
particular importance to us as a partner and neighbour. NATO 
and Russia share common security interests, such as the 
stabilisation of Afghanistan; arms control, disarmament, and 
non-proliferation of WMD, including their means of delivery; 
crisis management; counter-terrorism; counter-narcotics; and 
anti-piracy. Following through with the decisions taken by 
the Foreign Ministers at their meetings in December 2008 and 
March 2009, we look forward to the reconvening of formal 
 
USNATO 00000136  009 OF 009 
 
 
NATO-Russia Council meetings, including at Ministerial level, 
as soon as possible before summer 2009. We are committed to 
using the NATO-Russia Council as a forum for political 
dialogue on all issues - where we agree and disagree - with a 
view towards resolving problems, addressing concerns and 
building practical cooperation. We are convinced that the 
NATO-Russia Council has not exploited its full potential. We 
therefore stand ready, in the NATO-Russia Council, to assess 
possibilities for making it a more efficient and valuable 
instrument for our political dialogue and practical 
cooperation. 
 
36. Twenty years ago, an historic wave of democratic change 
swept through Central and Eastern Europe. NATO took this 
opportunity to engage countries across the Euro-Atlantic area 
in partnership and cooperation with a view to fostering 
security, stability and democratic transformation. We 
reiterate our commitment to further develop the Euro-Atlantic 
Partnership Council (EAPC) and Partnership for Peace (PfP) as 
the essential framework for substantive political dialogue 
and practical cooperation, including enhanced military 
interoperability. We welcome the offer of Kazakhstan to host 
the EAPC Security Forum for the first time in Central Asia in 
June. We thank our Partners for their significant 
contributions to our operations. We will continue to develop 
EAPC policy initiatives. In this regard, we welcome the work 
of the EAPC in education and training activities, and 
encourage national educational institutions to contribute to 
these efforts. We also encourage the EAPC to further develop 
the Building Integrity initiative which promotes transparency 
and accountability in the defence sector, and to report back 
to us on this initiative at our next Summit. We remain 
actively engaged with our Partners in supporting the 
implementation of UNSCR 1325 on women, peace and security, 
with the aim of having a comprehensive set of measures in 
place by autumn 2010. We are also contributing with our 
Partners to international efforts to put an end to the 
trafficking in human beings. 
 
37. Peace and stability in the Mediterranean region are 
essential for Euro-Atlantic security. For the past fifteen 
years, NATO's Mediterranean Dialogue has provided a valuable 
forum, including meetings at Ministerial level, for 
consultations and cooperation with our Mediterranean partners 
on a wide range of issues, and we welcome their significant 
contributions to Alliance-led operations and missions. We are 
convinced that joint ownership remains essential to the 
success of our relationship. We welcome the finalisation last 
month of an Individual Cooperation Programme (ICP) with 
Jordan, following those already concluded with Israel and 
Egypt, as well as the recent initiatives from Morocco and 
Tunisia in this field. Against a challenging background in 
the Middle East and much welcomed renewed international 
commitment to build peace in the region, we stand ready to 
further enhance our political dialogue and practical 
cooperation with all our Mediterranean partners, including 
through the continued use of Trust Funds on a voluntary 
basis. We look forward to the restoration of constitutional 
rule in Mauritania, which will allow the resumption of its 
full participation in the Mediterranean Dialogue.
