Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties, Article 60. Look it up.

Edit; all the downvoters can find the text here, on page 20. Since the VCLT is considered a codification of customary international law and state practice concerning treaties, it is also legally binding on non-signatories and non-parties.

I would question if that’s actually relevant at all seeing as not all NATO states are party to it.

Makes no difference, as the Convention is considered customary international law. Legally, it is also binding on non-signatories. Again, look it up.

From a political angle, Turkey will of course be kept 'shackled' to the West, to keep it from drifting off into China's camp.
