Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has said Ukraine should accept that it will not become a member of NATO.
Zelensky during a call with the country’s military leaders said “Ukraine is not a member of NATO. We understand that. We have heard for years that the doors were open, but we also heard that we could not join. It’s a truth and it must be recognised.”
Recall that Russia used the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO, a US-led military alliance, as a justification for its invasion of Ukraine.
