The PPC provides the North Atlantic Council with comprehensive and integrated advice across the entire spectrum of NATO’s outreach policy.
The committee meets in various formats: “at 28” among Allies; with partners in NATO’s regionally specific partnership frameworks, namely the Euro-Atlantic Partnership Council, the Mediterranean Dialogue and the Istanbul Cooperation Initiative; with individual non-member countries in “28+1” formats; as well as in “28+n” formats on particular subjects, if agreed by Allies.
The PPC was established in April 2010 and succeeded the Political Committee.
