“I sense a significant support for a bold and ambitious NATO 2030 agenda,” Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg told journalists following the first day of the NATO foreign ministers’ meeting in Brussels.

“We all agree that the transatlantic relationship embodied by NATO remains the cornerstone of our collective defense, central to our political relations, and an essential pillar to the rules-based order,” he explained.

The 2030 strategy is meant to prepare the military alliance for new challenges, such as Russia’s destabilizing activities, the threat of terrorism, sophisticated cyber-attacks, disruptive technologies, as well as the rise of China.
