NATO Summit: Zelenskyy to arrive in Vilnius on Tuesday, attend dinner
President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will arrive in Vilnius on Tuesday and will take part in a dinner and a meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council on Wednesday.
This was stated by NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg before the start of the NATO summit in Vilnius, according to a Yevropeiska Pravda correspondent.
"President Zelensky will come to Vilnius. I will be happy to welcome him tonight at a dinner and at the inaugural meeting of the NATO-Ukraine Council tomorrow," Stoltenberg said, answering a question about Zelenskyy's possible refusal to visit if Ukraine is not offered an invitation to join the Alliance.
He emphasized that the Allies will send a strong positive signal about Ukraine's path to NATO membership.
However, the secretary general also added that he would not talk about the specific language of the final statement.
