## Resource

We are live in Ankara where NATO leaders are gathering for the bloc’s annual summit. The focus is again on the U.S. commitment and allies’ increased spending. Secretary General Marc Rutte insists there is unity and coordination from all members. The U.S. Ambassador to NATO Matthew Whitaker tells CNBC Washington does want the organisation to succeed but allies’ defence spending must ‘keep pace’. Stellar preliminary earnings from Samsung send jitters through Asian markets, causing a circuit-breaker on South Korea’s KOSPI as investors sell off.   See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .
