History

Historical Context

After NATO’s 78-day air campaign in Kosovo (1999), the alliance restructured its logistics, creating the NATO Support Agency headquartered in Luxembourg—a move formalized at the 8 June 2011 defence-minister meeting. By 2008 the NATO website listed 43 agencies. Today, Denmark’s Fire Point and Tencore embed Ukrainian missile production on NATO soil, tightening European supply chains and cutting reliance on Russian propellants.
