The CPG falls between NATO's 1999 Strategic Concept (SC), and documents that provide guidance for specific planning fields, such as the Ministerial Guidance for Force Planning etc. While remaining consistent with the SC, the CPG takes into account the changes in the international system since 1999. The document, until now classified, will be made public at the Riga summit. Julianne Smith, Transforming NATO.
