SUMMIT

Germany will be moving its Patriot anti-missile defense system currently deployed to Slovakia to Lithuania, to protect the NATO Summit of July in Vilnius, the German Defense Minister said. Germany has stationed two Patriot units in Slovakia and another three in Poland. Germany’s Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, said the summit will be particularly devoted to clear-cut assistance to Ukraine. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg a few days ago admitted Allies are divided over Ukraine’s bid to join NATO, a topic which will be addressed at the summit in Vilnius. Stoltenberg recalled that all NATO decisions need to be unanimous.
