Expresses support for the United States' enduring commitment to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO), to the sovereignty of allied nations, and to the principle that disputes among friends are resolved through diplomacy, not violence. Affirms that wars of aggression against allies are morally indefensible, strategically catastrophic, and incompatible with the values and obligations of the United States under international law. Calls upon all elected officials, regardless of party or office, to reject rhetoric and policies that would place American service members in the position of betraying allies and committing acts of unjust war.
