— The summit decision will contain new formulations regarding Ukraine regarding Ukraine’s desire to become a member of NATO. The decision will not be identical to what was announced last year. At the same time, an invitation to Kyiv will not be considered; this is unrealistic.

NATO summit in Washington — Ukraine theme
On July 9-10, Washington will host an anniversary NATO summit dedicated to the 75th anniversary of the creation of the military bloc. It is predicted that the situation around a full-scale war in Ukraine will become one of the main focuses of attention at the meeting.
However, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg believes that inviting Ukraine to NATO membership is unlikely to take place during the meeting of the leaders of the Alliance.< /p>
