NATO | Jens Stoltenberg’s term is extended for another year
Defence Redefined
04/07/2023
NATO decided today to extend Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg’s term by a year, preferring to retain an experienced leader rather than trying to agree on a successor while the war in Ukraine rages.
Stoltenberg, a former Prime Minister of Norway, took over as NATO Secretary General in 2014 and his term has already been extended three times.
“Honored by NATO Allies’ decision to extend my term as Secretary General until 1 October 2024,” he wrote on Twitter.
Honoured by #NATO Allies' decision to extend my term as Secretary General until 1 October 2024. The transatlantic bond between Europe & North America has ensured our freedom & security for nearly 75 years, and in a more dangerous world, our Alliance is more important than ever.
— Jens Stoltenberg (@jensstoltenberg) July 4, 2023
