NATO

Stofnun

NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) is an international defense alliance established in 1949. Iceland is a founding member of NATO, uniquely without its own military force, and relies on the alliance for its security under Article V of the Washington Treaty. Iceland's strategic geographic location in the North Atlantic, particularly its control over access to key maritime routes, is its primary contribution to NATO, and it hosts NATO facilities like the Iceland Air Defense System and participates in military exercises. Despite not having a military, Iceland contributes civilian experts to NATO missions and operations.
