SUMMARY
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Washington, DC, ahead of the high-stakes NATO summit, where long-term support for Ukraine in its war against Russia is a top priority. Zelensky aims to bolster allied support, meet with President Joe Biden, and deliver a speech during the summit. NATO allies have promised announcements regarding Ukraine during the three-day gathering starting Tuesday. Despite these assurances, concerns persist about the adequacy of support as the war continues with no quick resolution in sight. Questions also arise about NATO's future if Donald Trump wins the upcoming presidential election, especially after Biden's recent debate performance.
