Foreign Affairs Ministers convene at NATO Headquarters in Brussels for the first day of a two-day meeting chaired by Secretary General Mark Rutte on Tuesday, December 3.
Discussions are set to focus on pressing international security concerns, including NATO's support for Ukraine amid its ongoing conflict with Russia.
This meeting marks Rutte's first ministerial session as NATO chief since his appointment in October.
While NATO maintains that Ukraine is on an 'irreversible' path to membership, no formal invitation or timeline has been agreed upon, reflecting divisions among member states.
