Turkish Defence Minister Yasar Guler stated that NATO is adjusting to a shifting security landscape and the United States is not seeking to leave the alliance, ahead of a NATO summit in Ankara next week.
NATO Summit
Turkey will host 32 NATO leaders, as well as officials from the Gulf and Asia-Pacific region, on July 7-8, amid tensions within the alliance over burden-sharing, defense spending, and U.S. complaints about allies’ lack of involvement in re-opening the Strait of Hormuz.
Guler said the summit would focus on bloc unity, evaluating allies’ increased defense spending, bolstering defense industry cooperation and increasing support for Ukraine.
