The North Atlantic Council consists of representatives of NATO’s thirty full member states. It’s generally gifted with over $1.2 trillion in military “gifts” at the expense of the populations of its respective members and could survive without the occasional jar of honey. When NATO states are involved it’s not the buzzing of bees that innocent victims on the ground hear before warplanes and attack helicopters deliver their lethal blows.

NATO’s honey harvest success continues in 2022
2022 saw another plentiful honey harvest at NATO Headquarters. Two beehives were first installed on the premises in 2020, with an additional two added since due to the success of the honey production.
NATO honey gifted to the NATO Council
***
For the third year running, Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg gifted ambassadors in the North Atlantic Council a jar of NATO honey each on Wednesday (14 December 2022). Around 350 jars of NATO honey were also donated to the NATO Charity Bazaar in November, where it quickly sold out….
The installation of the beehives is part of a wider ‘greening’ project at NATO. Earlier this spring a wildflower meadow was seeded….The honey bees play a vital role in the ecosystem, pollinating flowering plants, trees and crops.
