NATO Allies have agreed to extend the mandate of Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg by a further year, until 1 October 2024. 

The decision will be endorsed by NATO Heads of State and Government at the Vilnius Summit, an official statement said on Tuesday.

Allies thanked the Secretary-General for his leadership and commitment, which has been critical to preserving transatlantic unity in the face of unprecedented security challenges.

Stoltenberg said: “I am honoured by the decision of NATO Allies to extend my term as Secretary General.
