Those who bet against NATO have been proven wrong. Those were the words of U.S. Secretary of State Anthony Blinken as he dispelled doubts about allied fatigue in support of Ukraine.
Blinken was in Brussels with all 31 NATO foreign ministers, who gathered at NATO headquarters for two days this week to discuss how the allies can maintain unity in the face of multiple security challenges.
Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg praised the work of alliance members for their continued commitment and the weapons provided to embattled Ukrainian forces. Other issues were also on the table, namely the elusive final steps of Sweden’s ratification process, which appears to be nearing completion.
The Western Balkans, China, and NATO’s southern borders were also discussed among the Allies, with Ukraine and Sweden in attendance.
Brave words from our Democrats.
Historically our Democrats are quick to jump into wars, often with no plans for victory, and then just as quick to turn tail and run when the going get tough.
Slogging it out for the long-haul is not in Democrats' political DNA, especially if they can figure out how to blame Republicans for their defeats.
But at least for now they are sounding brave and hopefully they will cut a deal with House Republicans that also addresses some of our most pressing concerns, i.e., the Southern Border.
