In its current form, General Mini says NATO restricts Europe’s capacity to determine its own defence and security. And he says this has come about despite Nato protocols set in place to guard against it happening. “Articles 5 and 6 of the Nato treaty, deal with mutual defence, and refer to the territories of individual member states threatened by armed attack. “And for this they are pampered and supported financially and militarily by the United States and NATO.”While theoretically Nato could refrain from involving itself in the conflict. The only salvation from war can only come from a backward step by the United States or from a split in NATO.
