 @braxon . NATO is a Strategic Alliance , for mutual protection OF THE ALLIANCE MEMBERS . That is what " The Parties " means in the Article Statement .
Remember that Turkey and Greece were added to NATO basically together in 1952 so clearly things were going well at that time .
If , over time , two of the " Parties " develop a rift that's simply WHAT HAPPENED . It's between them .
NATO will surely be CURRENTLY putting some Diplomatic pressure to settle the Matter . But at this point in time that's all that can be done .
If Turkey WERE to withdraw from NATO , then sobeit . They would , of course , lose the " Umbrella " that NATO provides .
However , NATO and BRICS membership are definitely NOT mutually excluding .
One a Strategic Alliance , and the Other, an " Economic Community " . Only related in the vaguest of terms , those two .
Erdogan is the Problem , of course .
