The final stages of the summit
What will happen in Vilnius this afternoon? Three strengths remain.
Zelensky-Biden interview. First, Volodymyr Zelensky is set to meet one-on-one with a number of leaders, including US President Joe Biden, who is advocating a model similar to the one he concluded with Israel, under which Washington has pledged substantial military aid over time.
The G7 project. Members of the G7 (United States, United Kingdom, France, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan) will present a plan of long-term commitments for Ukraine’s security.
According to British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, the joint text will reaffirm the West’s commitment to “ensure that Ukraine never becomes more aggressive than Russia has done”. Specifically, at the end of the bilateral agreements between these countries and Kiev, it will create a framework detailing the weapons they will provide.
American speech. Finally, later in the evening, Joe Biden will deliver a speech at Vilnius University in which he will outline Washington’s commitment to protecting every square centimeter of NATO.
