G7, NATO, Joe Biden… All Western leaders gathered in Brussels

Beyond the symbol of union of Westerners, are new concrete decisions expected in Brussels (Belgium), Thursday, March 24? “The NATO meeting is still in progress, but the Westerners were to agree this morning on a strengthening of their position in the East, with four new battalions which will be deployed immediately, then in the longer term a permanent reinforcement of their bases which are located in the region”reports the journalist Julien Gasparutto, present on the spot.

Alliance members also had to “agree on new deliveries of equipment to Ukraine”and could in particular “provide anti-ship missiles”. AT 2 p.m., it will be the turn of the members to meet. They will discuss the new sanctions to be taken against Russia. Joe Biden, the US President, called “to target new oligarchs”, while Boris Johnson wants to target Russia’s gold reserves. Later in the afternoon, a European summit will begin in the center of Brussels, during which the questions of joint purchases and common stocks of gas will be discussed.
