Former Norwegian prime minister’s tenure extended for third time ahead of next week’s Vilnius summit
Jens Stoltenberg has been asked to extend his tenure as Nato’s secretary general for a further year until October 2024 after members of the western military alliance failed to agree on a replacement before next week’s summit in Vilnius.
It is the third time the former Norwegian prime minister’s term has been extended, although earlier this year it was thought he would finally step aside after over eight years at the head of the 31-country alliance.
