Britain's Wes Streeting and Germany's Boris Pistorius will lead the 36th Ukraine Defence Contact Group (Ramstein) talks on September 8, with NATO's Mark Rutte and US official Elbridge Colby expected to join. Ukraine has submitted an urgent list of air defence needs to NATO allies ahead of the meeting, which will focus on strengthening the country's air defences. The gathering comes as Russia continues large-scale drone and missile barrages against Ukrainian cities, intensifying pressure on Kyiv's air defence capacity heading into winter.
