At NATO’s Centre for Maritime Research and Experimentation (CMRE), scientists are pioneering quantum technologies that could transform undersea operations 🌊 For instance, Underwater Quantum Key Distribution could allow the communication of cryptographic keys on just a single photon, revolutionizing secure communications, and helping secure #NATO’s edge in the maritime domain for the quantum age ⚛️ Read more on page 120 👉 bit.ly/nitech13 @sto_cmre #MagazineMonday

Privilege to be back @nato to discuss with prize-winning historian @e_sarotte abt her book “Not One Inch,” a fascinating read about a complex period that led to the reunification of Germany & accession of C & E European countries to #NATO. We even ran into SG @jensstoltenberg!

Fantastic #photos of the old @NATO HQ by our colleague Endre Sebök. What was meant as a temporary home became the scene for significant alliance decisions over 51 years. As @jensstoltenberg said, in all #NATO buildings, it’s ultimately the people who make #history. #WeAreNATO
