NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen is set to come to Slovakia on Wednesday to meet Slovakia's top officials and evaluate the country's ten years as a NATO member. This will be Rasmussen's third visit to Slovakia as NATO chief.
“Among the issues that are likely to be debated are the evaluation of Slovakia's ten-year membership of NATO, developments in Ukraine and issues pertaining to NATO's further engagement in Afghanistan after the ISAF operation is concluded,” said Slovak Defence Ministry spokesperson Martina Balleková. The NATO secretary-general should appear at the GLOBSEC 2014 security conference in Bratislava on Thursday. He is expected to comment on the upcoming NATO summit in Wales in September, and the current situation in Ukraine.
