NATO will hold its summit in Ankara July 7-8, which is likely to include a formal leaders’ meeting and a parallel industry forum, where non-NATO capitals will participate.

But Zelenskyy has not yet formally accepted the invite. His attendance is “not clear yet,” one European official familiar with the invite told POLITICO. “Everything is still being decided. Everyone’s in waiting mode.”

The alliance is also weighing inviting Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates to the summit at the request of the gathering’s host, Turkey.
