In some ways, this week’s summit was quite similar to others. President Joe Biden had several bilateral meetings with NATO allies like Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, as well as allies (like South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida) who aren’t formally a part of the group. NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg lauded the alliance as unified, strong, and increasingly willing to spend what it takes to ensure its eastern flank is protected....

Common Side Effects of Radiation A form of energy released in particles or waves, radiation therapy is often administered by a machine that aims radiation at your cancer.
