NATO Vows Long-Term Military Aid to Ukraine Amid Russian Threats
  • NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg commits to more consistent and long-term military support for Ukraine amid Russian aggression.

  • Plans are in place to transition from short-term offers to sustained long-term commitments through the coordination of the Ukraine Defense Contact Group.

  • The initiative could involve up to $100 billion and aims to receive endorsement at the July summit by U.S. President Joe Biden and other leaders.

  • Previous Western pledges of aid to Ukraine have faced issues, with crucial financial aid blocked in the U.S., prompting Stoltenberg to call on Congress to pass the necessary funding.

  • Uncertainty looms over the potential impact of a Donald Trump return to U.S. presidency on NATO and Ukraine, a concern discussed at the recent NATO foreign ministers' meeting in Brussels.
