For some time now I have been considering transforming the North Atlantic Treaty Organization into a global alliance of free and democratic states. Currently only countries in North America and Europe are eligible for membership. However there are many exceptions to this clause already, with countries that are not connected to the North Atlantic (or even predominately in Asia) becoming members, such as Turkey and the former Warsaw Pact states. Several countries outside of Europe have been trying to join, such as Colombia and Georgia (though some argue Georgia is in Europe).
Do you believe NATO should become a global defense alliance for free states and free peoples around the world?
