What the EU can expect from NATO talks

NATO members are meeting in Brussels today for the first time since Trump took office to discuss defence spending pledges, GDP targets, and weapons delivery to Kyiv. 

The bloc is feeling the pressure. Trump infamously said he could end the war in 24 hours – yet in politics, 24 hours can change a lot. 

This meeting is a chance to show the US that the EU countries are doing their part in the Alliance, but there is a nagging doubt this may not be enough to persuade Washington to stay on in Ukraine.  So, what deliverables can we expect from NATO talks? And is Europe ready to assert its role in the Ukraine peace plan?  

In this episode, host Giada Santana and defence editor Aurelie Pugnet talk about the NATO meeting ahead and MEP Virginijus Sinkevicius speaks about Ukraine's bargaining chips.
