NATO Announces It Will Admit Ukraine As Member by barojana: 9:15pm On Apr 21, 2023 |
All NATO allies have agreed that Ukraine will become a member, says secretary general Jens Stoltenberg. Speaking ahead of a meeting of the Ukraine defence contact group at Ramstein air base in Germany, he also told reporters that, once the war in Ukraine ends, Kyiv must have "the deterrence to prevent new attacks". He said that the main focus is now to ensure the country prevails against Russia.

"Let me be clear, Ukraine's rightful place is in the Euro-Atlantic family," he told a news conference. "Ukraine's rightful place is in NATO."

REUTERS/Alina Yarysh 0:55 'Ukraine’s rightful place is in NATO' Jens Stoltenberg said on Thursday Meanwhile, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday that preventing Ukraine from joining NATO remains one of the goals of what Moscow calls its "special military operation." He said that Ukraine's accession would pose a "serious, significant threat to our country, to our country's security". President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said earlier this year that he was grateful for an invitation into the alliance, but said his country needs a roadmap for becoming a member.

The country's accession dealt a major political blow to Russian President Vladimir Putin as it doubled the size of NATO's border with the nation. Neighbouring Sweden is also expected to join, but so far Turkey has blocked its approval due to "security concerns". NATO map NATO allies have trained tens of thousands of Ukrainian troops and provided €65bn (£57bn) of military aid alone. On Friday, the Canadian government announced a further $28.9m (£23.3m) in military aid that will include 40 sniper rifles, 16 radio sets and a donation to a NATO fund to help Kyiv in the war. A day earlier, both Denmark and the Netherlands said they plan to provide Ukraine with at least another 14 refurbished Leopard 2 battle tanks by early 2024 - tanks that the country pleaded Western nations for, in order to give its forces the firepower they need to retake occupied territory. https://news.sky.com/story/nato-allies-agree-ukraine-will-become-member-12862389#:~:text=All%20NATO%20allies%20have%20agreed,deterrence%20to%20prevent%20new%20attacks%22.

Russia has bought market. How can all your neighbours hate and fear you so much that they seek protection from an ally thousands of kilometers away? Russia has a lot to learn from the US still. The US keeps its neighbours in N/America so safe that many of them remain under invested in their military because they know they are under the US nuclear umbrella. If the US were the threat many conspiracy theorists call it, Mexico and Canada would have armed themselves to the teeth or sought protection from China or the Soviets. But Mexico today doesn't see a need for a proper military. Today, America's NORAD protect the skies of Canada. Russia learn to be a good neighbour. You alone invaded Finland and stole 10% of their lands, invaded and occupied Georgia, invaded and occupied Moldova, invaded and occupied Ukraine and still occupies the Kuril island by Japan. 10 Likes 1 Share |

lecowas:so many misinformed people in this thread. Define "bullying your neighbors". Finland and Norway that joined NATO recently, check the news if Russia has ever "Bullied' them since WW2 ended till date. The Georgia and co they had issued with recently, what were the causes of those issues? So y'all actually believe Russia is bullying her neighbors?? Lol 4 Likes 1 Share |

No b today NATO dey admit Ukraine with mouth. They only said this just to calm the restless Zelensky who keeps disturbing them to admit Ukraine. It's like a 1yr old crying and the father keeps saying I'll buy biscuit for you even though he knows he won't buy it. Zelensky remains the most foolish leader of the 21st century. 3 Likes |
