In 2009, NATO Secretary General Jaap de Hoop Scheffer stated that Israel could not become a member of the organization and enjoy the obligations of joint protection provided for in Article 5 unless a peace agreement was concluded with the Palestinians, as well as until another Arab state joined the alliance.

In May 1958, Israel was invited to a meeting of the Council of Europe. After that, a special commission was set up to discuss Israel’s possible participation in the NATO economic procurement program.[5] After that, Israel began to supply weapons and military equipment to the countries that are part of this organization.[6][7]
In December 1987, Israel signed a memorandum with the United States on the status of a major non-NATO ally. This status was awarded by the US administration to particularly close allies with whom it maintains strategic relations but is not a member of the organization.[8][9] This step was initiated by Defense Minister Yitzhak Rabin.[10] The memorandum strengthened ties between the two countries in the field of defense research, development and procurement. It also included logistical support for Israel. The document compared Israel’s status in the United States with that of a NATO member, which allowed it to participate in and gain access to U.S. security development programs. The memorandum also simplified the access of the Israeli defense industry to tenders from NATO countries. This was supposed to make it easier for them to participate in the tenders of the NATO countries.[11]
In November 2017, Israel and NATO signed an agreement on the mutual exchange of security information.[25]
On February 9, 2018, a cooperation agreement was signed between Israel and NATO. This agreement gave Israeli companies the opportunity to participate in NATO tenders.[26]
