Zelenskyy says he understands Ukraine will be in NATO

Kyiv, 11/7:President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said on the eve of the NATO summit that Ukraine will be part of the alliance and expects from the meeting an “algorithm” for Kyiv to officially join it.

We are still working on the wording, that is, on the specific words of such confirmation, but we already understand the fact that Ukraine will be in the alliance,” Zelenskiy said late on Monday in his nightly video address.

 

“And we are working to make the algorithm for gaining membership as clear and fast as possible.”

 

European diplomats said Ukraine’s largest Western allies are still finalising a joint framework that would pave the way for long-term security assurances for Kyiv, and may wait until the end of a NATO summit this week to announce them.
