— In general, we — how political leaders — agreed that Ukraine would be a member of NATO. The question is what conditions, when, and obviously this is where the military bloc must come together. All NATO members are now waiting for the new US administration to start working. This is one of the aspects that is talked about or not talked about, but it is a reality, — she said.
The foreign minister, who is a former NATO official, noted that the battle-hardened Ukrainian army will be an important contribution to the military bloc. However, “some countries do not feel comfortable inviting a state that is at war” into NATO.
