This episode of NewsHour provides a comprehensive look at the pivotal NATO summit in The Hague, where leaders grapple with a new era of American pressure under President Donald Trump. With former Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte now at the helm as Secretary-General, the alliance is debating a historic proposal to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP by 2035—a move critics see as an attempt to appease Washington rather than a cohesive strategic shift.
The program breaks down the complex dynamics at play, from the immediate challenges of the war in Ukraine and tensions with Iran to the fundamental redefinition of NATO's purpose. Featuring on-the-ground reporting and in-depth analysis, this segment explores whether the alliance founded on collective defense is transforming into a transactional security contract.
To provide full context, the broadcast also includes a detailed historical documentary tracing NATO's entire journey—from its creation at the dawn of the Cold War to its major military interventions and the expansions that led to the current standoff with Russia.
