In an exclusive interview with The Times, outgoing-NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg appears to suggest he believe there is no level of support the alliance could give Ukraine that would goad Vladimir Putin to attack one of NATO's members. He hints that he supports the firing of Western long-range missiles into Russia by Ukraine, a plan apparently being held up by Joe Biden amid suggestions by Putin that it would be an act of war by NATO. Stoltenberg also insists it will be solely up to Ukraine to decide when to come to the negotiating table with Russia. So what is the meaning behind the messages? The Times' Defence Editor, Larisa Brown, joins the World in 10 to analyse Stoltenberg's thoughts.

This is episode one of two that will analyse this exclusive interview with Jens Stoltenberg. Episode two, on the immediate future of NATO and the risks it faces, will be published tomorrow.

Israel's lawmakers have officially rejected the establishment of a Palestinian state, ending hope for Joe Biden that one of his main foreign policies could come to fruition.

But the condition of that was an Israeli commitment to a Palestinian state. In today's World in 10, the Times' Middles East correspondent, Samer al-Atrush, analyses what this means for Biden, Israel and the war effort.
