The promise of Ukraine's membership in NATO must be fulfilled. But we can't wait another 75 years to celebrate the accession, it has to happen in the foreseeable future.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to a statement by Foreign Minister Dmytro Kuleba on CNN.
"We will be completely happy when Ukraine becomes a NATO member. And the promise of this will be realized. We have seen very encouraging signals at all levels over the past two days that the path to membership is irreversible, that Ukraine will be in NATO. But we cannot wait another 75 years to celebrate Ukraine's accession. It has to happen sooner, not later. Because this is the only way to ensure strategic security and stability in the Euro-Atlantic region," the minister said.
According to him, at the NATO summit in Washington, Ukraine heard promises of additional military assistance, including air defense, as well as the allies' decision that Ukraine's path to the bloc is "irreversible."
Kuleba also emphasized the importance of providing the Ukrainian army with enough weapons to enable them to hold their positions.
