"NATO Chief Urges Continued US Support for Ukraine Amid China and Russia Concerns"

NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg is in the U.S. to push for $60 billion in funding for Ukraine, meeting with Biden administration officials, lawmakers, and allies of former President Donald Trump. He faces skepticism at the Heritage Foundation, aligned with Trump, over aid to Ukraine, Israel, and Taiwan. Stoltenberg emphasizes that support for Ukraine is an investment in global security and will also visit the Pentagon, Congress, and Lockheed Martin's missile plant to make his case. Despite a stalemate in the Ukraine-Russia conflict, he highlights NATO successes in increasing defense budgets and fostering self-reliance in defense production.
