The
United States congratulates NATO Secretary General Rasmussen on the
extension of his mandate for a fifth year. This is a well-deserved
acknowledgment of his outstanding leadership and tireless commitment to
sustaining and strengthening the Alliance. He also has overseen the
development of a new Strategic Concept and a bold plan of action to
ensure we have the tools required to confront a changing and uncertain
landscape. We look forward to continuing to work with him in the years
to come.
