Ukraine will never agree: Zelensky named the condition for joining NATO.
Zelensky: Ukraine will not agree to partial membership in NATO
President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that Ukraine cannot agree to be invited to NATO with only part of its territory. He made this statement at a press conference with the new President of the European Council, Charles Michel.
Zelensky emphasized that this would imply that the rest of Ukraine's territories are not Ukrainian. He noted that Ukraine will never agree to such conditions.
Furthermore, the President of Ukraine pointed out that in the event of joining NATO, the restrictions provided by Article 5 of the Alliance, which concerns an attack on one of NATO members, will not apply. In such a case, an attack on one country will be considered an attack on all member states, triggering a response from all member countries.
Earlier, Zelensky also commented on negotiations with Putin.
