The 2022 Brussels summit was a meeting of the heads of state and heads of government of NATO held in Brussels, Belgium, on 24 March 2022.[1] The meeting took place in the wake of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.

On the day, NATO hosted meetings of G7 leaders.[2][3] Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy attended by video conference and addressed the summit.[4][5][6] Zelenskyy requested NATO states provide Ukraine with military equipment including aircraft, tanks, and armoured vehicles.[4] He also called for NATO to establish a no-fly zone to prevent air and missile attacks in Ukraine.[4] At the summit, some NATO states pledged to increase military spending.[7]

At the summit, leaders also agreed to extend the term of Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg for another year until September 2023.[8]

Following the summit, the leaders released a joint statement condemning Russian attacks on civilians and calling on Russia to immediately suspend military operations in Ukraine as had been ordered by the International Court of Justice a week earlier.[9]
