The cessation of hostilities may be followed by Ukraine’s membership in NATO – Biden’s adviser

Ukraine’s membership in NATO may follow the cessation of hostilities on the territory of our country. This was stated on Sunday, December 22, by the Director of European Affairs at the US National Security Council, Michael Carpenter, in an interview that was broadcast on the air of the telethon, writes UNN.

Details

According to him, membership in the North Atlantic Alliance is the highest security guarantee for Ukraine.

Article 5 is the most reliable, safest form of guarantees that states can have. Getting it is vital for Ukraine,

He added that while the hot phase of the war continues in Ukraine, it will be difficult to achieve this. And for our country to become part of NATO, a lot of political will will be needed from all 32 member countries of the Alliance.

At the same time, Carpenter supported the idea of ​​a European military mission that would guarantee Ukraine that Russia would not go further if a peace agreement was signed.

As I understand it, there are a number of European countries that will discuss this very concept. So, in my opinion, the presence of several EU countries that would invest in the success of Ukraine and help stabilize the situation makes sense,

We will remind

The US Secretary of State stated that NATO membership is the best security guarantee for Ukraine. An alternative could be the presence of a European military contingent at the demarcation line after the peace agreement.
