Background
In this period, the organization faced a generational challenge; and the unresolved questions concerned whether a new generation of leaders would be as committed to NATO as their predecessors had been.[2]
Agenda
The general discussions focused on the need for affirming of the fundamental importance of the Alliance, Other topics included,
- Allied cohesion in the face of international economic pressures following the 1974 oil crisis; and
- Support for successful conclusion of negotiations in the framework of the Conference on Security and Cooperation in Europe (CSCE).[1]
