2008: NATO Summit, Bucharest

NATO's 20th Summit is scheduled to take place in Bucharest, Romania in early April of 2008. The Summit takes place on an irregular basis - in the past, at most once every two years. However, we will see a break in this trend in the upcoming years, as a subsequent Summit will take place in 2009, most likely in Berlin, to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Alliance. Issues of interest to be discussed include the situation in Afghanistan and the possibility of additional countries - such as Georgia and the states of former Yugoslavia - joining NATO.
