The articles discuss the recent developments in the NATO summit held in Washington DC, where President Joe Biden and his counterparts from various countries met to mark the 75th anniversary of the alliance. The key takeaway is that NATO has pledged to provide Ukraine with five new strategic air defense systems, including Patriot missile defense systems from the US, Germany, Netherlands, Romania, and Italy's SAMP-T system.

1. He's got another day and a half he's got to get through. Some of it unscripted, as today was very tightly scripted.
Olaf Scholz
Social Democratic Party of Germany
1. From the many conversations I have had with the American president, I know that he has prepared this summit very well and very precisely together with us.
Keir Starmer
Labour Party
1. But today and tomorrow and the next day is all about standing together with our allies, discussing practically how we provide further support for Ukraine, and send a very, very clear message to Putin that we will stand against Russian aggression wherever it is in the world.
Jens Stoltenberg
North Atlantic Treaty Organisation
1. Our alliance was created by people who have lived through two devastating world wars.
2. Ukraine has shown remarkable courage and NATO allies have provided unprecedented support. But let's be honest -- not even our support for Ukraine has been a given.
Volodymyr Zelenskiy
Ukraine Government
1. Everyone is waiting for November. Americans are waiting for November, in Europe, Middle East, in the Pacific, the whole world is looking towards November and, truly speaking, Putin awaits November too.
2. I am grateful to our partners—the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Italy, and Romania—for adopting a strong declaration in support of Ukraine's air defense system to protect its people, cities, and critical infrastructure.
Joe Biden
Democratic Party
1. Before this war, Putin thought Nato would break. Today, Nato is stronger than it's ever been in its history. When this senseless war began, Ukraine was a free country. Today it's still a free country and the war will end with Ukraine remaining a free and independent country.
2. Today, Nato is better resourced than it ever has been. I want to pause on this because it's significant.
3. The American people understand what would happen if there was no Nato.
4. They know we're strong with our friends, and we understand this is a sacred obligation.
5. All told, Ukraine will receive hundreds of additional interceptors over the next year, helping protect Ukrainian cities against Russian missiles and Ukrainian troops facing their attacks on the front lines.
6. We know Putin will not stop at Ukraine.
7. Make no mistake. Ukraine can — and will — stop Putin.
