NATO and all Allied flags were lowered to half-mast at NATO Headquarters on Saturday (14 November 2015) following yesterday’s horrific terrorist attacks in Paris.

NATO and Allied flags are flying at half-mast at NATO Headquarters on Saturday (14 November 2015) to pay tribute to the victims of the terrorist attacks in Paris and in solidarity with the people of France.

Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg strongly condemned the attacks, saying “we stand strong and united in the fight against terrorism. Terrorism will never defeat democracy.”

At noon on Monday (16 November 2015), the NATO International Staff, the International Military Staff, and national delegations will observe a moment of silence to pay tribute to the victims and in solidarity with France.
