All 32 NATO leaders reaffirmed their unwavering support for Ukraine – Rutte

During the NATO summit in Ankara, all 32 allied nations reaffirmed their unwavering support for Ukraine and pledged to provide at least 70 billion euros in military equipment, aid, and training this year and a similar amount next year, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said.

The Alliance’s head emphasized the need to continue assistance amid a shift in the dynamics on the battlefield in Ukraine’s favor. According to him, Russia’s economy is in dire straits, and Putin is losing about 30,000–35,000 of his troops on the front lines every month.

Additionally, U.S. President Donald Trump criticized Spain ahead of the NATO summit in Ankara, declaring his intention to sever trade relations and halt visits between the two countries.
 

Before the start of the NATO summit in Ankara, U.S. President Donald Trump once again accused allies of underfunding the Alliance, while praising the work of NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte.
