On Thursday (10 September 2026), NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte addressed the annual German Heads of Mission Conference in Berlin, highlighting Germany’s leadership in building a stronger Europe within a stronger, fairer and more capable NATO. Mr Rutte said Germany is leading in the most profound transformation of the Alliance since the Cold War – NATO 3.0 – in which European Allies and Canada take greater responsibility for their security. There is a shift in mindset that “security is not something the US should do for us, but with us,” the Secretary General noted.
