NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg says his organization supports the “initiative and renewed efforts” to find a political solution to the crisis in Syria.
Speaking in Brussels Tuesday, Stoltenberg also said it was important to support France after Friday's attacks on Paris. But he said that there had been "no request" to invoke Article 5 of the NATO treaty, which commits each member state to consider an armed attack against one as an attack on them all.
"NATO strongly supports the initiative and the renewed efforts to find a political solution to the crisis in Syria, and I welcome that Russia is part of that. And I welcome that Russia is sitting down with many other nations to try to find a political solution,” Stoltenberg said.
“The important thing is that all NATO allies, as all EU members, stand in full solidarity with France. We have already heard that several NATO allies and EU members have offered assistance, help, to France and NATO and NATO allies are playing a key role in the coalition fighting ISIL."
