Geopolitical uncertainty and a looming United States election formed the backdrop for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s July summit in Washington, DC. The gathering marked the third summit since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine. Burden sharing, support for Ukraine, and deterring Russian aggression, main topics of the previous two summits, remained front and center this year. But the Washington summit also discussed growing concern over China, NATO’s cooperation with Indo-Pacific allies, and Russia’s mounting hybrid attacks.

More than 100 days later, Hudson experts will discuss how successful the alliance has been in implementing key decisions made at the 2024 summit. How does NATO’s support package for Ukraine look in light of the shifting dynamics on the ground in recent months? What do new NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte’s priorities tell us? How could the outcome of the US presidential election impact NATO? What are the opportunities and pitfalls for transatlantic relations in the near future?
