Belarus is not a member of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).

– NATO is a military alliance established by the North Atlantic Treaty (Washington Treaty) of April 4, 1949.
– Hungary, Poland, and Turkey are all member states of NATO. Hungary and Poland joined in 1999, and Turkey joined in 1952.
– Belarus is a landlocked country in Eastern Europe, allied with Russia, and is a member of the Collective Security Treaty Organization (CSTO), not NATO.

As of 2024, NATO has 32 member states. Membership is open to any other European state in a position to further the principles of the Treaty and to contribute to the security of the North Atlantic area. Belarus has no intention of joining NATO and has historically viewed the alliance with suspicion due to its close ties with Russia.
