In a bid to bring long-lasting peace to the embattled region, NATO has pledged unwavering support to Ukraine. The military alliance's commitment is being spearheaded by senior officials like Admiral Giuseppe Cavo Dragone, chair of Nato's military committee.
According to Adm Dragone, there is an increasing chance that Russia will not achieve a puppet government in Ukraine as it did in Belarus under President Vladimir Putin's rule. He attributed the slow advancements made by Russian forces to their inability to decisively break through Ukrainian defenses.
NATO members have agreed to increase their defense spending to 5% of GDP by 2035. This move aims to bolster the alliance's military capabilities, particularly air defense, in light of recent drone incursions into Poland and Romania.
The possibility of activating a "drone wall" along Nato's eastern borders has been discussed, with Adm Dragone stating that this is set to be implemented within months. The alliance is reportedly preparing for such an initiative by integrating existing air defenses on its eastern flank.
Despite the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, Admiral Dragone expressed optimism about NATO's reliability and cohesion, which he believes provides a strong foundation against adversaries. He emphasized the importance of sustained support for Ukraine, highlighting that the alliance will stand with it "up to the day" when peace is achieved.

nato's got my back 
especially w/ adm dragone at the helm 
he's a total hero for supporting ukraine like that 
it's about time ppl in power take a stand against russia's evil plans 
& btw, 5% of gdp is still pretty low 
but i guess it's better than nothing 
the idea of a "drone wall" tho? 
that sounds like something outta a video game 
can't wait to see it go down into action 
! Finally some concrete moves being made towards de-escalating the situation in Ukraine. I mean, who doesn't want a permanent fixture of 'drone walls' along their borders? 
It's about time they took actual action rather than just talking tough.
. 5% GDP defense spending by 2035 sounds like a good start, but I'd want to see some tangible results before I get excited 
. And let's not forget that Russia still has the upper hand in terms of sheer military might... it'll be interesting to see how this all plays out 
. Still, I guess it's better to have some kind of plan in place rather than nothing at all...
. I mean, increasing defense spending and setting up a "drone wall" shows they're really committed to helping Ukraine out. It's like, they know Russia might not be able to take over easily anymore, so they need to beef up their air defenses 
. If you're trying to navigate a tricky relationship or career move, you can't just stick with what worked yesterday – you gotta pivot and try something new

: I think its about time NATO showed some serious teeth in this whole Russia-Ukraine debacle... like, 5% of GDP? That's cute. Increasing defense spending might just be a drop in the bucket compared to what's at stake. But hey, it's better than nothing. And that "drone wall" idea isn't half bad either - can you imagine having a literal barrier against those pesky Russian drones?
