The US explained how they would react to Ukraine's likely decision on neutrality/ru.usembassy.gov
US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that Washington will support Ukraine in any case. Even if our country decides to choose a neutral policy instead of striving to join NATO.
However, the official stressed that this should be the choice of our people only. He expressed this opinion when he entered into an argument with one of the US senators. Channel 24 reports this with reference to the broadcast of Blinken's speech to the senators.
The senator suggested that Russia was provoked
The controversy began when the senator said that Russia could attack Ukraine allegedly because of a provocation. Like, the reason for the escalation and invasion was that the United States supported the membership of our state in NATO. This politician also said that the neutral status of Ukraine has now helped to end the war.
These decisions are made by the Ukrainians themselves (about joining NATO – 24 channels). We must do everything so that this country has the opportunity to fight Russian aggression and strengthen its position at the negotiating table. Blinken said.
He added that the United States would support Ukraine's position. However, it is still necessary that our state agree to conduct such negotiations with a terrorist state.
This is one of the demands of the aggressor
- Since the beginning of negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, the enemy side has been insisting on several things.
- In particular, they are talking about the need to abandon the desire to join NATO.< /li>
- Our side of negotiators has already convinced the Russians that this cannot be done overnight.
- The course towards joining the North Atlantic Alliance is written in our constitution. The Ukrainian authorities agreed to these changes only after the referendum.
- However, such a vote of the people can only be held after the end of hostilities.
- At the same time, the chance to join NATO after the war with Russia will be is already much higher than before.
- Ukraine is already developing an agreement on providing security guarantees to our state.
Pay attention! It has been repeatedly stated that the treaty on guarantees can become an analogue of NATO. However, an attack on our territory will not equal an attack on any of the signatories.
