military cooperation

Armed forces collaboration

Military cooperation is coordinated action between armed forces of different nations or groups.

It ranges from joint training exercises and intelligence sharing to combined operations and mutual defense agreements.

NATO relies on military cooperation among member states.

The term often appears in diplomatic contexts where direct alliance language might be too strong: The two countries signed a military cooperation pact.
