Import-dependent nations such as Pakistan, Myanmar and Kenya have been hit especially hard, while the U.S. is also facing higher gasoline prices due to global oil markets.

NATO Military Chief Giuseppe Cavo Dragone:

For hybrid activities, there is not an automatic Article 5 request because, I mean, they usually stay under the threshold.

I mean, a direct attack is not on the agenda. But a direct attack is an Article 5 request immediately, basically.
