Elizabeth Hoffman: On the eve of the NATO summit, which will mark the 75th anniversary of the alliance, it is confronting its most pressing challenge in decades, since the end of the Cold War. Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 served as a stark reminder of the threat Western democracies face from resurgent authoritarians, ever determined to reshape the international order. The summit will convene presidents and prime ministers from the world’s most powerful democracies, and sustained support for Ukraine will be at the top of the agenda. However, in the United States, it is Congress that has and continues to play the most critical role in surging and maintaining support for Ukraine’s remarkable defense against the full-scale Russian invasion.
