President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy suggests that a cease-fire agreement with Russia can be concluded if the unoccupied territories controlled by Ukraine are under NATO protection.

Details: According to the president, this will allow negotiations on the return of the rest of the territory later “by diplomatic means”.
At the same time, the head of state emphasizes that the invitation to NATO should include all internationally recognized borders of Ukraine.
Zelensky also noted that the ceasefire is necessary to “guarantee that Putin will not return” to seize more Ukrainian territory.
“If we want to stop the hot phase of the war, we need to take the territory of Ukraine controlled by us under the NATO umbrella,” the Ukrainian president said.
Prehistory:
- The invitation to NATO is the first point of Ukraine’s Victory Plan, publicly presented by Kyiv in October. At the same time, the invitation of a country that is at war and has occupied territories poses a dilemma for the members of the Alliance.
- Zelensky’s statement regarding the possible freezing of the war in Ukraine was heard against the background of the election of the Republican Donald Trump as president in the United States, who previously promised to end the war “in 24 hours”, although he did not specify exactly how.
