Ministers took stock of the implementation of the expanded package of political and practical support to Ukraine agreed at the Vilnius Summit.

We will further develop these work strands. The NUC has also proven to be a reliable crisis consultation mechanism. NATO continues to provide Ukraine with urgently needed non-lethal assistance.
