Working Of the
Alliance

6. The strength Of our alli-
ance. freely concluded between
independent nations. lies In our
fundamental unity in the face
OF the danger which threatens
as. Thanks 10 this fundamen-
tai unity. we can overcome our
dificulties and bring into l1ar-
mony our individual points OF
view. In contrast. as events In
Hungary have shown. the So
Wet bloc Is held together only
By political and military coer-
cion.
Z. Although progress has
been made. further improve
ment Is needed In our political
consultation. We are resolved
10 bring this about. Our per-
manent representatives win be
kept fully informed Of all gov
eminent policies which materi-
ally affect the alliance and its
members. In this way. we shall
be able TO draw fully on each
others political experience and
to insure q broad coordination
OF our policies in the interest.
not only Of the alliance. but OF
the free world as q whole.

%. AS regards defense pro-
ducti0n we have decided, In
view Of the progress already
made, to take further measures
within NATO TO promote the
cooperation OF research, de-
velopment and manufacture Of
modern weapons, including in

siles.

10. As long as the Soviet
Union persists IN this attitude,
we have no alternative but to
remain yigilant and TO look to
our defenses. We are, there
fore. resolved TO achieve the
most effective pattern Of
NATO military defensive
strength. taking into account
the most recent developments
In weapons and techniques.
20. To this end NATO has
decided to establish stocks OF
nuclear warheads. which will
be readily available for the de-
Tense Of the alliance In case of
need. In view Of the present
Soviet policies in the field OF
new weapons the council has
also decided that intermediate
range ballistic missiles will
have to be put at the disposal
Of the supreme allied COM
mander. Europe.
2i. The deployment Of these
stocks and missiles and ar
rangements for their use will
accordingly be decided In con-
formity with NATO defense
plans and in agreement with
the states directly concerned.
The NATO military authorities
have been requested TO sub
NIT to the council at an early
date their recommendations
on the introduction Of these
weapons in common defense.
The council in permanent ses-
sion will consider the various
questions involved.
%. Recognizing the rapidly
growing interdependence OF the
nations OF the free world, we
have. in organizing our forces.
decided TO bring about closer
coordination with a view TO
insuring that each NATO mem
Der country makes its most
effective contribution to the re-
quirements established by the
alliance. Better use Of the re-
sources Of the alliance and
greater efficiency for It's forces
will be obtained through as
high a degree of standardiza-
ton and integration as possible
in all fields. particularly in
certain aspects OF air and naval

setbacks given by the Soviet
Union to the cause of controlled

10. We state our willingness
to promote, preferably within
the framework of the United

posals recalled above.
We are also prepared TO ex-

9. We recall that In the
course Of this year. the Western
countries taking part in the
London disarmament talks put
forward to the Soviet Union,
with the unanimous agreement
Of NATO. a series Of concrete
proposals providing. subject to
effective controls:
. For reduction Of all arma-
ments and military forces:
. For the cessation Of the
production OF fashionable mate
rial for weapons purposes:
. For the reduction Of exist
ing stocks Of nuclear weapons.
. For the suspension of nu-
clear weapons tests.
. For measures to guard
against the risk OF surprise at
tack.
.. We note with regret that
these various proposals. which
would halt the armamehts race
and add to world security II
they were accepted. were re-
jected en- bloc by the Soviet
Union. although they had been
approved by Sc members Of the
United Nations.

Union has brought about .

negotiations by declaring their
intention 70 boycott the United

IL. We denounce Soviet tac-
tics Of alternating between
peace propaganda statements
and attempted intimidation by
the threat Of nuclear attack.
IL. We deplore. also. that the
leaders Of the USSR do not
allow the Soviet population to
be impartially informed and

International Situation

|, The aim Of the Soviet bloc
Is TO weaken and disrupt the
free world. Its instruments
are military. political and eco
nomic: and its activities are
worldwide. To meet this chal-
lenge the free world must or
ganlze its resources-moral,
military. political and eco
nonlc--and be ready to deploy
them wherever the situation
demands. Our alliance cannot
therefore be concerned only
with the North Atlantic area
or only with military defense.
II must also organize its polit-
ical and economic strength on
the principle Of interdepend-
ence. and must take account Of
Developments outside its own
area.
2. IN the course OF our meet
ing We have therefore reviewed
the international situation and.
in particular. the dangers to
world peace arising from Soviet
actions and threats. In spite
Of the dangers Of the situation
which are obvious to all, the
Soviet Union has made no real
contribution to the solution Of
major problems causing inter-
national tension. We have es-
peeially in mind the problems
Of the reunification Of Ger
many in freedom. and the con-
tinuing anomaly Of the iso-
lation Of Berlin-the capital Of
Germany. We renew and re-
affirm our declaration OF asa
October. 1854. which had In
view the establishment on a
firm basis Of the security and
freedom Of Berlin. The per-
petuation OF injustice to the
German people undermlnes in

dangers peace. At the Geneva
Conference of heads Of govern
ment in July. 1855. the Soviet
leaders took a solemn commit
ment that the reunification Of
Germany by means Of free
elections shall be carried out In
conformity with the national
interests OF the German peo-
pie and the interests Of Euro
pean security" We call upon
the Soviet government to hon.
or this pledge.
