Deputy Secretary General Radmila Shekerinska welcomed the EU Commissioner for Sustainable Transport and Tourism Apostolos Tzitzikostas to the NATO Headquarters on Thursday for a meeting with Allies in the North Atlantic Council.
They discussed practical ways to step up NATO-EU cooperation, focusing on military mobility. The Deputy Secretary General highlighted the important role that the EU can play in making sure that NATO Allies can deploy and sustain their forces rapidly to and throughout the whole of Europe.
Ms Shekerinska thanked Commissioner Tzitzikostas for an insightful presentation to the North Atlantic Council. She stressed that exchanges with the EU are essential to foster transparency on issues of common interest between both organisations and to explore what more NATO and the EU can do together.
The meeting was part of NATO’s close cooperation with EU counterparts. At the meeting of NATO Foreign Ministers on 3-4 April NATO Allies met with EU High Representative Kaja Kallas and on 26 March NATO Allies received a briefing by Andrius Kubilius, the EU Commissioner for Defence and Space.
