NATO on the Brink: Can Mark Rutte Save the Alliance? As NATO secretary-general, Mark Rutte has been embroiled in a delicate balancing act since taking the reins nearly two years ago.

Amidst rising tensions with Russia and a growing sense of unease within the alliance, Rutte's ability to keep the US anchored to NATO will be crucial in determining the future of the alliance.
