Upon these recent attacks and threats directed against our national security, North Atlantic Council has been called for a meeting by Turkey next week under Article 4 of the Washington Treaty with a view to informing our Allies about the measures we are taking and the operations we are conducting against terrorism, as well as to holding consultations with them.

The meeting to be chaired by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg is expected to take place on 28 July, Tuesday.
