Brussels' urinating boy statue wears NATO outfit

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg described the summit, which U.S. President Joe Biden will attend for the first time, as a "pivotal moment", with allied leaders discussing China and raising concern about Russia's recent military build-up near Ukraine.

NATO leaders hope to hear Biden recommit the United States to NATO's collective defence after his predecessor Donald Trump's confrontational rhetoric towards allies from 2017 to 2019 at summits created an impression of crisis, envoys said.
