Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte announced the new initiative during a visit by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau to the Netherlands on Friday
The Netherlands threw its support behind a new NATO centre of excellence to study the security threats posed by climate change Friday, during Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s official visit to Holland.
Trudeau first announced the intention ask allies to support the development of a NATO climate security centre of excellence during the NATO leaders’ summit in Brussels in June. The new Canadian centre would become a strategic addition to the more than two dozen such NATO think-tanks. The centres offer the military alliance expertise and research capability to develop doctrines and approaches to a vast array of global security challenges.
Trudeau identified disinformation campaigns and extremism as serious threat to global economies and democracy in his speech earlier Friday to Dutch parliamentarians.
