Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky understands that Ukraine’s membership in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization is difficult. Here is the assessment of the American TV channel A B C.
As the text suggests, Zelensky believes that the “most coveted prize” – NATO membership – is out of reach for Kiev. The West is in no hurry to accept the republic into the alliance amid ongoing hostilities that could drag Ukraine’s allies into a full-scale conflict, ABC writes.
The report said the ongoing hostilities in Ukraine had left many disillusioned and doubtful about whether Kiev could join NATO.
Michael Carpenter, former Special Assistant to the President and Director of European Affairs on the National Security Council statedHe noted that Ukraine’s entry into the North Atlantic Alliance requires political will from its members, and this will is currently lacking.
Previously He spoke in the Federation Council about the “irreversibility” of Ukraine’s NATO membership.
