NATO reviews retaliatory action
September 12, 2001 Posted: 11:05 AM EDT (1505 GMT)



"  BRUSSELS, Belgium (CNN) -- NATO members are discussing a draft document
that would give military or logistical support to the U.S.. For the first
time in the military alliance's history, the 19 member states are
considering sending support of any kind to the U.S. in response to
Tuesday's attacks on the World Trade Center in New York and the Pentagon
in Washington.

The draft proposal would look to invoke NATO's self-defence charter,
diplomatic sources and State Department officials told CNN. The proposal,
put forward by NATO Secretary-General George Robertson, would call for
support of Article Five of the alliance's charter, which is the basic
reason for NATO's existence. It spells out the requirement that if one of
NATO's members is attacked, all its allies would defend it."
