At the International European meeting in Brussels, NATO foreign ministers celebrated the alliance’s 75th anniversary and discussed how to boost military aid to Ukraine amid rising tensions.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg urged Ukraine to get long-term help rather than short-term aid. By replacing the US European Command in directing the Ukraine Defense Contact Group, NATO would streamline military cooperation and help Ukraine buy arms and ammunition.
The strategy emphasizes non-lethal help including demining equipment, fuel, and medical supplies, marking a change in NATO’s engagement in the battle. At their Washington summit, US President Joe Biden and allied leaders are expected to embrace this trend.
Stoltenberg stressed the severity of the situation, highlighting Russia’s aggressive man oeuvres and attempts to get the upper hand in the war. Ukraine is increasing its military ranks by lowering the conscription age.
Broken promises and logistical difficulties have hampered Western assistance distribution. After political disputes halted progress on financing, Stoltenberg urged Congress to approve military aid packages for Ukraine immediately.
NATO is committed to strengthening Ukraine’s defense in Europe’s greatest battle in decades.
