Originally, it was supposed to be a NATO foreign ministers’ meeting to plan a birthday party. But at 75, the same Alliance that just a few years ago wondered whether it had outlived its purpose, now has to instead figure out how to quickly take on more responsibility. Up to now, the United States ran traffic for arming Ukraine.
