For the first few months of the war in Ukraine, NATO countries generally pulled together to confront and isolate Russia.

Host Steve Clemons discusses the future of the transatlantic alliance with former German diplomat, Boris Ruge; editor of The National Interest, Jacob Heilbrunn; and Al Jazeera bureau chief in Washington, DC, Abderrahim Foukara.
