NATO will establish a permanent presence in Kyiv with an office and its own senior civilian official in a series of measures designed to "cement" long-term military support for Ukraine. According to U.S. and NATO officials, the decision is part of a series of new arrangements expected to be announced next week at a summit in Washington.
The decision also takes into account the likely election victory of former US President Donald Trump. In addition, the background and likely impact of the growing popularity of right-wing parties in Europe is also taken into account.
