Nato vows 'irreversible path' to Ukraine membership
Nato members have pledged their support for an "irreversible path" to future membership for Ukraine, as well as more aid. | While a formal timeline for it to join the military alliance was not agreed at a summit in Washington DC, the military alliance's 32 members said they had "unwavering" support for Ukraine's war effort. ● Nato has also announced further integration with Ukraine's military and members have committed €40bn ($43.3bn, £33.7bn) in aid in the next year, including F-16 fighter jets and air defence support. ● The bloc's Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said: "Support to Ukraine is not charity - it is in our own security interest."
Dmitry Medvedev (Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council) (Дмитрий Медведев) |"We will continue to support it on its irreversible path to full Euro-Atlantic integration, including NATO membership." | («Мы продолжим поддерживать [Украину] на необратимом пути к полной евроатлантической интеграции, включая членство в НАТО»). This is what our enemies said yesterday in the Washington Declaration of the Alliance. ■ The conclusion is obvious. We must do everything to ensure that Ukraine's "irreversible path" to NATO ends either with Ukraine's disappearance or NATO's disappearance. Or, better, both. (Translation: DeepL)
