Key topics will include NATO’s deterrence and defense posture in response to evolving threats, as well as the strategic outlook on emerging risks facing the Alliance. Discussions will seek to strengthen unity and collective readiness among member states.
During the summit, President Erdoğan is expected to engage in bilateral meetings with several world leaders, addressing both regional and global issues of mutual interest.
The summit comes at a pivotal moment as NATO reaffirms its commitment to collective defense in an increasingly complex geopolitical environment. (ILKHA)
