NATO nations have agreed to provide Ukraine $43 billion in new military aid next year. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg confirmed the deal ahead of NATO’s three-day summit in Washington that begins Tuesday. This comes as Russia continues to attack Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, leaving more than 100,000 without power. Earlier today, Russian strikes killed 29, including two people who died in an attack on a children’s hospital in Kyiv.

On Friday, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán met with Russian President Vladimir Putin on a trip condemned by Ukraine and EU leaders. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is meeting Putin today.
