NATO leaders gathered for a two-day summit in The Hague on Tuesday. The meeting comes at a critical time as weapons deliveries approved during the Biden administration are running low, and the Trump administration, which has shown a pattern of backing down from international commitments when pressured, shows little interest in providing new assistance.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, once treated as a VIP guest at NATO summits, has been pushed to the background this year. NATO officials are trying to keep Trump and Zelensky apart in public, showing how delicate the situation has become.
