Summary: In 2016, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) agreed to enhance its military presence in the eastern part of the Alliance to deter and defend against potential adversaries. As part of these efforts, NATO established three distinct deterrence and defence missions. Operation REASSURANCE is Canada’s contribution to these missions. Canada’s participation in NATO’s deterrence and defence efforts in Europe contributes to European security, stability, and prosperity. Canada’s contributions also reinforce our commitment to the rules-based international order, demonstrate our transatlantic solidarity, and highlight our active leadership in the Alliance.
