STORY: Leaders invited to the NATO summit posed for a family photo on Tuesday (June 24) at Huis ten Bosch Palace in The Hague.

The NATO alliance has crafted a summit this week to shore itself up by satisfying U.S. President Donald Trump with a big new defence spending goal - but it now risks being dominated by the repercussions of his military strikes on Iran.

The two-day gathering is also intended to signal to Russian President Vladimir Putin that NATO is united, despite Trump's previous criticism of the alliance, and determined to expand and upgrade its defences to deter any attack from Moscow.
