Note:
Each NATO member country has a delegation at NATO Headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, and contributes to the consultation process, which allows NATO to take collective decisions or actions. A delegation represents its country and has a status similar to that of an embassy. It is led by an "ambassador" (also called ‘permanent representative’), who acts on instructions from his or her capital and reports back to national authorities.
MILREPs from each NATO member nation populate the Military Committee in NATO HQs. This is the most senior military committee within the Alliance and its
primary task is to provide military advice to the North Atlantic Council.
