Oct 1, 2024
The new NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte has stated the need to support Ukraine and bring it closer to membership in the Alliance. He emphasized that without an independent and strong Ukraine, there will be no reliable security in Europe.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to the broadcast of the ceremony.
“We must work to ensure that our people live in safety. We will continue to support Ukraine and bring it closer to NATO. Because there will be no reliable security in Europe without a powerful independent Ukraine. I know this from my own experience. In 2014, the MH-17 plane was shot down near the front line. We have to work to prevent this from happening again,” Rutte said.
He also emphasized the importance of fulfilling the tasks set at the Washington Summit to support Ukraine on its irreversible path to NATO.
“We must fulfill the tasks set at the Washington Summit to help Ukraine on its irreversible path to NATO. Because Ukraine has to take its rightful place,” he emphasized.-
