Blinken meets EU and NATO officials in Brussels to discuss support for Ukraine
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken visited Brussels for talks with EU and NATO officials to enhance support for Ukraine. This comes amid concerns about potential changes in US policy if Donald Trump returns to the White House. Blinken assured European leaders of continued US military aid to Ukraine before President Biden's term ends. He mentioned recent commitments of $8 billion in security assistance and plans for more support by January. NATO Chief Mark Rutte highlighted the interconnectedness of global instability, noting Russia's procurement of technology from China and Iran. This reflects the broader implications of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.
