On Friday’s episode of “Morning Wire,” The Daily Wire’s Ian Haworth joined John Bickley and Georgia Howe to discuss the emergency NATO summit in Belgium on Thursday dealing with the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Haworth spoke of the leadership at the summit issuing a joint statement calling on Russian President Vladimir Putin to “immediately stop this war and withdraw military forces from Ukraine, and call on Belarus to end its complicity.” He also mentioned the universal call at the summit for a ceasefire and the necessity for Russian forces to allow “rapid, safe, and unhindered humanitarian access and safe passage for civilians,” as well as the delivery of aid.

On Wednesday, NATO’s secretary general said NATO was set to approve major increases in the number of troops stationed in Eastern Europe, to the tune of 40,000 more troops, with new battle groups being placed in Bulgaria, Hungary, Romania, and Slovakia — all of which rest on NATO’s eastern flank, Haworth noted. NATO had also announced it would continue to provide further assistance in cybersecurity and guarding against chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear threats.
