Question

How did NATO provide for the collective security of its members?

Answer 1

NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) provided for the collective security of its members by stating that an attack on one member would be considered an attack on all. This principle was outlined in Article 5 of the NATO Treaty, ensuring that member nations would act together to resist armed aggression against any member country. The alliance thus guaranteed mutual defence and aimed to deter Soviet expansion during the Cold War.
