Canadian NATO Parliamentary Association (CANA)

The Ukraine-NATO Interparliamentary Council is composed of two members and two alternates nominated by each of the Assembly’s five Committees plus up to ten members of the Ukrainian Parliament. In general, the Council meets twice each year – once at NATO HQ in Brussels and once in Ukraine and considers matters of common interest to NATO and Ukraine. It provides a parliamentary counterpart to the NATO-Ukraine Commission. The UNIC elections take place in the Committees during Annual Sessions.

To better understand China’s perspective on a range of critical international security issues, a delegation representing nine different NATO member states from the Sub-Committee on Future Security and Defence Capabilities (DSCFC) visited Beijing and Shanghai from 10-14 June.

During the Spring Session of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, parliamentarians from NATO member countries and partner nations met to study draft reports and heard from government representatives, NATO officials, and experts on a wide range of issues concerning the Alliance.
