Intelligence chief calls for equal partnerships within NATO

Turkish intelligence chief İbrahim Kalın has said NATO needs strong partnerships and relations based on equality as the alliance faces a more uncertain and fragmented security environment.

Kalın, head of the National Intelligence Organization (MİT), spoke at the “Allies in Ankara” program held at Ankara Palas on the sidelines of the 36th NATO Summit, according to security sources.

The event was organized by Türkiye’s Communications Directorate, the Munich Security Conference and the Foundation for Political, Economic and Social Research, or SETA.

Kalın said security could no longer be defined only in military terms, adding that NATO had to adapt to this new reality.
