NATO summit in Bucharest as Russian bombs land near Romania
Several NATO leaders, including Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, will meet in Bucharest on Wednesday for the B9 summit. The gathering of the alliance's eastern flank countries comes as the war in Ukraine feels increasingly close to Romania. Over recent months, Russian forces have stepped up attacks on Ukrainian Danube ports. Those ports sit just a few hundred meters from the Romanian border. Romanian officials and locals now report a growing sense of fear as the conflict hits their doorstep.
