thanked Allied personnel for their service and for their contribution
to NATO operations and missions during his first visit to Allied Joint
Force Command Headquarters in Naples on Friday (27 February 2015). “You
are helping to keep our Alliance safe, and our world more secure,” he
said.
The Secretary General underscored the command’s “wide range of responsibilities”
and its key role in running a large number of missions and operations.
He noted that Allied Joint Force Command Naples has been at the
forefront of NATO’s engagement to train Iraqi security forces, protect
civilians in Libya, combat terrorism in the Mediterranean, and bring
stability to the Balkans.
