A national caveat is a restriction that North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) members place on the use of their forces. NATO General John Craddock, NATO's Supreme Allied Commander Europe (SACEUR), was quoted as saying all caveats must be removed in February 2007 in an article written by the Associated Press.〔COL Douglas Mastriano, US Army, "Faust and the Padshah Sphinx: Reshaping the NATO Alliance to Win in Afghanistan ", June 2010, http://oai.dtic.mil/oai/oai?verb=getRecord&metadataPrefix=html&identifier=ADA518150〕 == National caveats == United States officials have urged NATO countries to eliminate caveats, and some steps have been taken to lift them, but the problem appears to remain. At the Riga Summit NATO nations agreed to lift caveats in a time of an emergency, however the definition of an emergency is debatable. The problem of National Caveats is not new and was identified as a problem during the KFOR mission in Kosovo in 1999. NATO leaders met in Copenhagen Denmark in 2005 to address the matter of national caveats. They passed RESOLUTION 336 on REDUCING NATIONAL CAVEATS, but the resolution was non-binding, meaning that nations could apply it as they deemed fit. 〔COL Douglas Mastriano, US Army, "Faust and the Padshah Sphinx: Reshaping the NATO Alliance to Win in Afghanistan ", June 2010, http://oai.dtic.mil/oai/oai?verb=getRecord&metadataPrefix=html&identifier=ADA518150〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「National caveats」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
