Description

When Stoltenberg took office as Secretary General of NATO in 2014, the world was already changing. What followed was a decade marked by war, diplomatic crises, and decisions that helped shape our shared security.

This book takes readers behind closed doors and offers a rare insight into how the worlds most powerful military alliance handles crises. Stoltenberg describes the effort to keep NATO united, and addresses key issues such as the war in Ukraine, NATOs withdrawal from Afghanistan, relations with Russia and China, and cooperation with world leaders like Angela Merkel, Donald Trump and Volodymyr Zelensky.

This is not a book about division. It is a story of unity, of friendship and of why NATO still matters. Through reflections on disagreement and difficult dilemmas, Stoltenberg shows why openness is essential to preserve cohesion and to face the challenges of tomorrow.

On My Watch offers a unique insight into the art of diplomacy and the hard choices that must be made when global peace is at stake.
