"All NATO allies have agreed that Ukraine will become a member of the alliance," Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg told reporters on Friday, Ednews reports citing foreign media.
"President Zelensky has very clear expectations," the military alliance chief said, adding that Ukraine needs "security" to make sure that "the history doesn't repeat itself." "The main focus now is on ensuring that President Putin does not win the war, that Ukraine prevails, because without a sovereign and independent Ukraine, there is no meaning in discussing membership," Stoltenberg stressed.
Speaking before the Ukraine Contact Group meeting at the Ramstein Airbase in Germany, the NATO chief revealed that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has formally accepted the invitation to join the alliance's summit in Vilnius in July.
