2026 NATO Summit Declaration: Russia as Long-Term Threat and Obligations to Ukraine

The final declaration of the NATO summit was the briefest in the last quarter century.

It claims that Russia poses a long-term threat to the countries of the Euro-Atlantic community. It is noted that NATO countries will allocate 70 billion euros to Ukraine in 2026, and also commit to support it at an equivalent level in 2027. However, the obligation to admit Ukraine to the alliance is not mentioned.
