Fotyga, a member of the European Parliament and a former Polish foreign minister, is the only representative of Central and Eastern Europe in the group, public broadcaster Polish Radio’s IAR news agency reported.

The team, appointed by NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg, is made up of five men and five women. They are expected to come up with proposals on how to strengthen the political dimension of the Western military alliance.

Stoltenberg said on Twitter on Tuesday: “I have appointed an expert group of five women and five men to help chart out NATO’s future.”

He added: “The group will offer recommendations to reinforce Alliance unity, and increase political consultation and coordination between allies.”
