The Future Security Policy of the Alliance - Report of the Rapporteur Sub-Group 3, Mr. Foy D. Kohler; Final Draft

6 Oct 1967
Description: This 6 October 1967 final draft of the report on the future security policy of NATO by Sub-Group 3 states that the security of the members of the alliance rests on two pillars: first, the maintenance of adequate military strength to deter aggression and to defend NATO territory, and second, realistic measures to reduce tensions and the risk of conflict, including arms control and disarmament measures. The purpose of the report is not to provide a detailed assessment of the military threat, strategic concepts, or force requirements, but rather to develop a broad perspective of NATO's security position at the time, to outline future directions, and to suggest the security policies required for the years ahead.
