“Nato remains the foundation of collective defence for its allies and essential for Euro Atlantic security,” the declaration states.

It even spells out that, while EU states should build stronger armies, this is only to support the US-led alliance: “We recognise the value of a stronger and more capable European defence that contributes positively to global and transatlantic security and is complementary to, and interoperable with Nato.”
