If NATO is to remain the world’s premier multilateral military alliance, then it must find ways to help its member states address their key—and common—security challenges, Kathleen J. McInnis writes.

Iedereen ziet bovendien met één blik het verschil van Schoof en Veldkamp met een Rutte en een Kaag en hoe zij zich op het wereldpodium wisten te bewegen en dat nu nog meer doen dan ooit.
Een land dat politiek sterk verdeeld is -zeker als die verdeeldheid ook in de coalitie en regering zelf zit- wordt internationaal weggespeeld.
In die situatie zit Nederland momenteel.
We doen er even wat minder toe.

The US promised to protect Ukraine when it gave up its nuclear weapons in 1994 under the Budapest Memorandum. However, in 2014 & 2022, when Russia violated Ukraine's sovereignty, the US betrayed Ukraine. No country will ever give up its nuclear weapons again, because Washington's word is toothless.
