Good morning.
Today, Nato members are gathered in Vilnius, Lithuania’s capital, for their annual summit. Before Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the military alliance seemed to have lost a lot of its purpose, and was desperately seeking relevance. Now, thanks to the threat posed by the Kremlin, it has been revitalised. The agenda is packed and the goal is to try to create common ground and settle the conflicting goals and desires of its members, as well as making key decisions on the war in Ukraine and redefining what the future of a relationship between Russia and Nato might look like.
