Why is the NATO Summit in The Hague?

For 125 years The Hague has been the international city of peace and justice. And NATO was established in 1949 to safeguard peace and security in its member states. This is why it is fitting that The Hague was chosen to host the NATO Summit.

Dedication to peace and security

Most of Europe’s security organisations and companies are located in The Hague. There are also 131 international institutions such as the International Court of Justice, the International Criminal Court and the NATO Communications and Information Agency. All of these organisations demonstrate the city’s dedication to promoting peace and security. In The Hague thousands of people are working daily to build a better, more just and safe world.

Large international events in the field of peace and justice have been held in The Hague for years. The city also has suitable hotels which are also easily accessible for international visitors. The World Forum in the International Zone is a perfect and safe location for the NATO Summit.
