Given its geostrategic location, expertise and high-readiness capabilities, HQ MNC NE provides the command and control umbrella for the enhanced Forward Presence (eFP) Battle Groups and NATO Follow-on Forces so that these troops are able to respond immediately to any threat across the full spectrum of warfare. Today, all the key initiatives on NATO’s north-eastern flank join up in Szczecin.
