US President Joe Biden and leaders of other NATO member states are poised to unveil new aid for war-ravaged Ukraine as they gather for their annual summit in Washington on Wednesday. Biden, 81, who has for 13 days faced questions about his fitness for office after fumbling a June 27 debate, hopes the international event will help him stage a comeback of sorts, surrounded by allied leaders he has spent his three years in office cultivating. After calling the 32-member collective security alliance "stronger than it’s ever been" in a forceful speech on Tuesday, Biden and the other NATO leaders now turn to their difficult work: the two-plus year standoff between the West and Russia over Ukraine, the Israel-Gaza war and deepening bonds between Russia, Iran, China and North Korea. For in-depth analysis on the high-stakes NATO summit, Genie Godula is joined by Dr. Garret J. Martin, Senior Professorial Lecturer of Foreign Policy & Global Security, and Co-Director of the Transatlantic Policy Center at the American University School of International Service in Washington DC.
