NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg addressed a joint session of Congress Wednesday morning. In his speech, he emphasized NATO's importance in preserving peace during the post-World War II era. He noted that NATO was created almost exactly 70 years ago to secure democratic alliances and offer a counterbalance to the Soviet Union. "Ever since the founding of NATO in 1949, every Congress, every American president, your men and women in uniform, and the people of the United States of America, have been staunch supporters of NATO. America has been the backbone of our alliance," Stoltenberg said. "Through NATO, the United States has more friends and allies than any other power."
