She will be attending the NATO Legal Advisors meeting on

of the meeting to avoid any "surprises." She mentioned the
possible hassle for non-Allies to reach agreements before
participating in any activity, but recognized US concerns
regarding reciprocity and any ratification procedures.

possible Russian withdrawal from current bilateral SOFA
agreements with various Allies.
