The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) is a nuclear-armed military alliance which is an obstacle to a peaceful world and global nuclear disarmament. CND is supporting the No to NATO international network’s counter-summit, taking place in protest at the NATO leaders’ summit taking place at the same time.
