NATO Statement Endangers Patients in Afghanistan

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 11, 2010

Doctors Without Borders (MSF)

The international medical humanitarian organization Doctors Without
Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) today strongly objected to a
recent statement by NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen, in
which he implied that nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) should be

In conflict areas, MSF never works alongside, or partners with, any
military strategy. The organization's complete independence and
neutrality is what helps negotiate access to populations in need of
emergency medical assistance.
