Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy will discuss NATO membership aspirations, security guarantees, and military aid during an upcoming meeting with European partners, aiming to strengthen Ukraine’s position both diplomatically and on the battlefield.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy plans to address Ukraine's NATO membership aspirations and security assurances during a forthcoming meeting with European partners, Kyiv announced on Tuesday.
The meeting, announced on Monday, aims to align a collective stance and bolster Ukraine's position both in negotiations and on the battlefield.
"One of the issues on the agenda of such a meeting will certainly be the issue we are discussing now of obtaining a membership application and the issue of security guarantees for Ukraine until it joins NATO," stated Ihor Zhovkva, deputy head of the Ukrainian president's office.
He also noted that discussions on military assistance for Ukraine would be part of the meeting.
These matters were similarly discussed during Zelenskyy's recent engagements with U.S. President-elect Donald Trump and French President Emmanuel Macron, Zhovkva added.
"It is absolutely clear that the issue of Ukraine's membership in NATO, unfortunately, remains unattainable for now. I mean, as long as Russian aggression against Ukraine continues, until we win. And so today... we need appropriate guarantees of our security before we join NATO," Zhovkva explained.
