NATO leaders gather for key summit in Ankara
NATO leaders meet in Ankara as members reduce reliance on the US due to Washington's retrenchment and Russian aggression. Canada plans to buy submarines from European providers, Germany will borrow $900 billion for defense spending, and Europe seeks to leverage Ukraine's defense industry and drone expertise. European officials warn reduced US support will weaken NATO for years.
