Secretary-General’s note on the level of forces of the Member States of WEU placed under NATO command (London, 28 February 1980)

Texte
In this note, the Secretary-General of Western European Union (WEU) circulates the text of the report for 1979, adopted at the meeting on 25 February 1980 in Brussels and signed by the permanent representatives of the WEU Member States in the North Atlantic Council, with the exception of France. This document is an example of the ad hoc procedure that was first established in 1967 (document CR (67) 21) and applied for subsequent years concerning the examination of force levels of WEU Member States under NATO command. The document indicates that these forces fall within the limits previously established in accordance with Protocol No II of the modified Brussels Treaty and that a declaration on the French forces will be made by the French representative in the WEU Council when the annual examination of force levels takes place. The annex refers to a request by the German authorities to increase the number of naval operational aircraft to 125 so as to enable Germany to carry out the defensive missions assigned to it by the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO).
