US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has said he is confident NATO allies will commit to Donald Trump’s bold demand of raising defence spending to 5% of GDP. Speaking after a high-stakes meeting in Brussels, Hegseth noted there was near-consensus among member states, with many already surpassing the 2% benchmark. The final commitment is expected during the Hague summit later this month. NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte also supported a split plan—3.5% for hard military power and 1.5% for broader security needs—calling it a historic turning point in alliance capability.

Ukraine’s NATO membership hopes face a major setback as the alliance drops any mention of its bid from the upcoming Hague Summit’s final declaration. To avoid divisions, NATO will remain silent on Kyiv’s accession, with U.S. reluctance and Trump’s return to prominence deepening the rift. While Zelensky may attend a royal dinner, he’s excluded from formal talks. As NATO downplays Ukraine ties, Washington withdraws leadership, raising fears of a soft pivot toward Moscow amid stalled peace talks and rising global tensions.

The United States says the UK and all other NATO allies must agree to spend at least 5% of national income on defence and security "starting now". Sky News
NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has declared Ukraine's path to NATO membership “irreversible.” But this bold statement comes after months of wavering remarks from both Rutte and other Western leaders, who had earlier ruled out such a move. Critics argue that the alliance’s indecisiveness is dragging the war on, giving mixed signals to both Kyiv and Moscow. As Ukraine fights to survive, NATO's promises remain non-committal, raising questions about whether the “irreversible” path is real or rhetorical. Ukraine’s future hangs between hope and hesitation.

NATO faces a deepening crisis as a major corruption probe targets its support and procurement agency. Coordinated raids across six countries, including the U.S., led to multiple arrests over allegations of bribery, money laundering, and misuse of classified data in defense contracts. Belgian authorities confirmed drone and ammunition deals are under scrutiny. NATO says it is cooperating fully. Secretary General Mark Rutte vowed to “clean house” as the scandal threatens procurement efforts amid urgent calls to arm Ukraine.
