NATO Secretary General at the 2023 NATO Youth Summit, 05 JUN 2023

Remarks by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg at the 2023 NATO Youth Summit, 5 June 2023. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg participated in the NATO Youth Summit on Monday (05 June 2023), an event bringing together young leaders in Brussels and Washington, D.C. to discuss and explore critical issues for global security, from disinformation to the latest technologies, and from climate change to national defence. In a moderated conversation with Dr. Kira Allman, incoming Director of Partnerships & Communications at the William & Mary Global Research Institute, the Secretary General talked about maintaining NATO unity over the years, and tackling security challenges from Russia’s war in Ukraine to terrorism, climate change and disruptive technologies. He emphasised, “Unity is our biggest strength.” The 2023 NATO Youth Summit was organised by the NATO Public Diplomacy Division in partnership with the College of William & Mary, with the theme “NextGen Freedom and Security.” The Youth Summit’s panel discussions covered security challenges including hybrid threats, space and disinformation. The Summit featured a number of speakers from across NATO’s 31 Allied countries, as well as from Sweden and Ukraine. 🗣 | NATO Secretary General: Dr. Kira Allman (Brussels): We are going to ask the Secretary General some questions here in Brussels. And then we'll hand over to Colleen in Washington DC for some additional questions. And you get the chance to ask questions of the Secretary General. Just use the app if you've got the app. The Q & A function is where you can submit your questions online or if you're here in person, raise your hand and I will call on you. Okay, let's give a round of applause to welcome NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg to the stage. Brilliant, thank you so much for being here with us today, Secretary General. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg: Thanks so much for having me. It's good to be back. I was here a year ago and it’s good to be back again. Dr. Kira Allman (Brussels): Brilliant. My first question is about what it's like to be NATO Secretary General. You've actually been Secretary General for nearly a decade. You have to work with a lot of different countries and leaders. And I'm wondering, has that tenure given you any particular insight into how to keep NATO united and successful? What is your secret? NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg: I don't know whether I have any secrets. But I think it is very much about keeping people together and different people together, because as we all know, we are 31 nations which are members of NATO. And soon we will be at 32 with also Sweden. From both sides of the Atlantic, with different history, different culture, different political parties in power. And of course, that makes us all quite different. But at the same time we have been able to be together as a big family and I feel that my main purpose is to keep this big family happy and together. And we are able to be together despite our differences because we all understand that in a more dangerous world, we are safer when we are together, North America and Europe. So my perhaps not secret, but my main message is that staying together, unity, is our biggest strength. And I used to be Prime Minister in Norway for 10 years and most of the time I was Prime Minister in a coalition government with different parties. And to keep a government together it's very much the same as to keep NATO together. Dr. Kira Allman (Brussels): Could you tell us about some of the most formative experiences in your career? You mentioned a couple of highlights just now. But how did you become Secretary General of NATO? What did that path look like? NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg: Well, I was surprised when I was asked to become the Secretary General of NATO. Because I have never planned for being that. Actually I made one decision, one clear conscious decision about my career, and that was not to become a politician. But to start to work on as a researcher in the Central Bureau of Statistics in Norway in 1989. Because then I finished my master degrees in economics in Norway, and I started on a PhD, on something called econometrics.
