Stoltenberg describes the effort to keep NATO united and addresses key issues, such as the war in Ukraine, NATO's withdrawal from Afghanistan, relations with Russia and China, and cooperation with world leaders including Angela Merkel, Donald Trump, and Volodymyr Zelenskyy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is not a book about division.
