Accredited journalists can attend ministers’ doorsteps and the press conferences of the NATO Secretary General. These events will also be streamed live on the NATO website [https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/index.htm].

If you accept a NATO pool position, you must share immediately all information and material collected while in the pool with any accredited media that requests it, at no charge and with no restriction on the use of the material for news purposes.
