NATO at 75: More Allies, Less Unity? | To the point

NATO is celebrating its 75th anniversary -- in the shadow of unprecedented challenges. Just as alliance leaders were gathering, Russia bombarded a pediatric hospital in Kiev, killing and wounding dozens of children and prompting Ukraine’s president to renew his pleas for additional air defense systems. Whether such support will be forthcoming in future even if Donald Trump returns to the White House is just one of the doubts worrying NATO members. The alliance is bigger than ever, but does that make it stronger, or potentially more divided? Can 32 member states maintain a united front against aggressors? The question: NATO at 75: More Allies, Less Unity?

Guests:
Marcus Keupp, Department of Defense Economics at the Military Academy of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology
