NATO Betrays Zelensky: Stoltenberg Denies Ukraine Membership, Boosting Putins Position

NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has acknowledged the uncertainty surrounding Ukraine's potential membership in the military alliance, stating that its accession is contingent on the outcome of its ongoing conflict with Russia. In an interview with CBS News on Sunday, Stoltenberg, who is set to step down in October, clarified that there is no definitive timeline for Ukraine’s NATO membership, even suggesting it might not occur within the next decade. Stoltenberg was questioned about his preference for Ukraine to join NATO by 2034 rather than within the next few years. He responded, “Well, no one has said exactly 10 years but it’s obvious that it is a very serious issue to bring in Ukraine,” emphasising the complexity of integrating a nation currently embroiled in war. He added, “The most important thing for NATO now is to step up our support to Ukraine to ensure that Ukraine prevails. That’s a precondition for any future membership for Ukraine.” #NATO #Zelensky #Stoltenberg #UkraineMembership #Putin #Geopolitics #InternationalRelations #MilitaryAlliance #EuropeanSecurity #RussiaUkraineConflict #NATOAlliance #GlobalPolitics #WarInEurope #SecurityDiplomacy #NATODenial ~~~~~ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Oneindia News is a youth-driven channel that brings you stories that need your attention, are popular, informative, and entertaining.
