As NATO leaders gathered in Madrid, what were the key moments and decisions from a historic summit? How are alliance members supporting Ukraine militarily? And following Russia's invasion of Ukraine, is the "long peace" following World War Two now over?

Dr. Ulrike Franke, senior policy fellow at the European Council on Foreign Relations and European defence expert, joins Arthur Snell for our latest war bulletin.

We're putting out irregular war bulletins covering different aspects of the Ukraine crisis. Thank you for backing us on Patreon, we really appreciate your support.

•  “This summit was about NATO showing unity and that’s definitely what happened.”
•  “The one thing everyone wants to avoid is a conflict between NATO and Russia. That leads to a full-scale global war.”
•  “Germany has to re-learn a logic of military power that we’ve been deeply uncomfortable with for decades.”
