A resolution urging all members of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization to oppose confirmation of a new Secretary General, if the candidate was a former leader of a member country which did not spend 2 percent of gross domestic product (GDP) on defense.

This resolution urges all NATO members to oppose any candidate for Secretary General who previously led a country that failed to spend 2% of its GDP on defense. It directly affects NATO's selection process for its top official, requiring that the next Secretary General not be a former leader of a nation that missed this spending target. The resolution cites NATO's 2006 and 2014 commitments to the 2% defense spending goal, noting only 11 members met it by 2022. It argues that leadership by someone from a country that didn't fulfill this commitment undermines the alliance's unity and goals.
