Yes, NATO can send its forces to a non-NATO country — but only under certain conditions:V ustanovni listini Nata piše da ne sme. Ker je nato ustanovljen da brani članice Nata, ne pa da brani tudi nečlanice.
Če misliš drugače, zakaj pa potem tja tudi uradno ne gredo ???
Invitation or Consent:
NATO cannot just send troops into a non-member country without explicit consent from that country’s legitimate government. Otherwise, it would be considered an act of aggression under international law.
UN Mandate:
Sometimes NATO operates under a United Nations Security Council mandate (e.g., peacekeeping missions, humanitarian interventions). Examples include:
Bosnia and Herzegovina (1995, post-war peace enforcement, under UN authority)
Kosovo (1999, NATO acted without explicit UN approval but argued humanitarian necessity)
Self-Defense or Collective Security:
Very rarely, if NATO sees a direct threat to member states (e.g., terrorism, massive regional instability), it might act citing Article 51 of the UN Charter (self-defense). However, it would still try to build international or legal justification.
Special Agreements:
Some non-member countries sign special partnership agreements with NATO (like Ukraine had for years). In such cases, NATO forces could be deployed for training, advising, or other purposes.
