北約集體自衛權

 

【Comment】

NATO declared that they will exercise the right of individual or collective self-defense, according to Article 5 of the North Atlantic Treaty, which was based on Article 51 of the UN Charter.  The declaration suggested that NATO’s responsibility reaches East Asia, or comes almost global as long as there is US presence.    revised at 1420
北約聲明的含意是集體自衛權擴及東亞，也就是全球了。

正在日本訪問的北大西洋公約組織（NATO）秘書長拉斯穆森表示，如果北韓對美國發動攻擊，北約將視之為對全體成員國的攻擊，可能會行使集體自衛權。

拉斯穆森告訴日本共同社記者，北約在《北大西洋公約》第5條中規定，美歐各成員國享有集體自衛權。他以2001年美國遭受恐怖攻擊後北約行使集體自衛權出兵阿富汗為例，他說，如果成員國遭受襲擊，北約將進行協商並視情況做出相應決定。

對於北韓最近的挑釁行為，他明確表示，北約予以最強烈的譴責，這是對地區及全球安全的威脅。
