U.S. to Brief NATO on Attack Investigations

Deputy Defense Secretary Paul D. Wolfowitz can expect another strong expression of solidarity from the 19-nation alliance. The North Atlantic Treaty Organization invoked a mutual defense clause for the first time in its 52-year history the day after the attacks.
U.S. officials said Wolfowitz would look to allies to help with intelligence sharing and measures to cut off financial flows to terrorism suspects.
