NATO’s Vilnius summit: The highlights and the future challenges

This week, the leaders of NATO member countries gathered in Vilnius for the organisation’s annual summit. The summit addressed crucial issues and implications for international security. From Sweden’s accession to NATO and Ukraine’s aspirations for membership to new defence plans and security guarantees, this week’s episode explores the summit’s highlights and potential impact on the global security landscape.

And what are the key points of NATO’s new defence plans?This podcast was recorded on 13 June 2023.
