La Organización del Tratado del Atlántico Norte (OTAN) es una alianza militar intergubernamental entre 32 estados miembros. Fundada tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial, la OTAN se estableció con la firma del Tratado del Atlántico Norte en 1949. La organización sirve como un sistema de seguridad colectiva y disuasión, por el cual sus miembros independientes acuerdan defenderse mutuamente de un ataque por parte de cualquier parte externa. Esto está consagrado en el Artículo 5 del tratado, que establece que un ataque armado contra el territorio de un miembro se considerará un ataque contra todos ellos.

“We’re incredibly complacent about the continuous delivery of peace and stability in our lives, and a hell of a lot of that depends on NATO... We tend to take it for granted.”
