Memorandum by Ministry of Foreign Affairs, 'Political consultation'

This document was made possible with support from MacArthur Foundation

This letter outlines the problems NATO faces as relations between member and non-member countries are complicated by conflicting interests. Not only is NATO struggling externally to play the field between free and communist countries in forming its alliances, but also internally to reconcile the different objectives of imperialist and non-imperialist countries and form a cohesive defense strategy.
