New Zealand has been invited to attend the upcoming NATO meeting in Brussels. Defence Minister Judith Collins says it reflects a more perilous geopolitical situation. Q+A asks her if there's an appetite for a NATO-style defence agreement in the Pacific. Meanwhile, HMNZS Manawanui continues to leak fuel off the south coast of Upolu in Samoa.
