Mark Galeotti: 我认为北约峰会并未达到预期，主要目标是避免出现与特朗普相关的灾难，但为此北约陷入了一种不稳定的局面。关于GDP 5%用于国防的说法并不准确，实际只有3.5%，剩余的1.5%可以被各国政府以各种名义填充，而许多北约成员国甚至未达到2%的标准。尽管北约秘书长和欧盟外交政策负责人试图强调增加国防开支的必要性，但乌克兰问题在峰会上被边缘化。在最终公报中，北约仅将俄罗斯描述为长期威胁，而非直接或生存威胁，许多人物为了达成这一结果做出了非同寻常的自我贬低。尽管会谈中提及欧洲战略自主，但实际上没有人真正从中获得有意义的成果，并且联合声明中没有谴责俄罗斯的侵略行为。对特朗普的逢迎，反而强化了克里姆林宫的观点，即欧洲害怕失去美国的支持，欧洲是分裂的，世界政治由少数国家主导。
