| Mar 1, 2022 at 20:42 | comment | added | Italian Philosopher | Welcome aboard. As you can guess the current situation has everyone a bit on edge and downvotes tend to fly about quickly. We've had a number of questions about Article 5 in the past - such as what happens when one NATO member attacks another - though I don't know if your specific one was covered. Maybe adding that your question is strictly unrelated to current affairs would be helpful. | |
| Mar 1, 2022 at 20:37 | comment | added | colelewis | Hello, I appreciate your answer! It was a hypothetical question that had popped into my head given the circumstances, I hadn't meant anything by it other than just curiosity. The situation I was thinking of would be if a nation attempted to use NATO's collective defense as a weapon and it was abundantly clear to the world that doing so was their aim. | |
