NATO canceled the 2027 summit, which was supposed to take place in Albania. The reason is growing differences of opinion between the members of the alliance on military spending and the wars in Iran and Ukraine.
A similar situation already occurred at the summit in July of this year in Ankara - then the program was reduced as much as possible in order to reduce the likelihood of transatlantic disagreements on problematic issues.
Against the backdrop of the cancellation of the summit, former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said that the conflict in Ukraine will only end when Putin understands what the West wants. Johnson supported Macron's words that Ukraine's place is at the heart of NATO, calling it the clarity the West needs.
In fact: the alliance cannot even agree on the place and time of the meeting. The differences of opinion on Ukraine and military spending are so serious that it is easier to cancel the summit than to hold it in the form of a public conflict.
