NATO to meet for annual summit: Will Ukraine get membership?

Firstpost  

NATO’s much-celebrated unity faces fresh strains when leaders gather for their annual summit this week in Vilnius, Lithuania. “I don’t think it’s ready for membership in NATO,” President Joe Biden told CNN in an interview that aired on Sunday. “You don’t want to present any gaps or seams.” By some measures, the war in Ukraine has reinvigorated NATO, which was created at the beginning of the Cold War as a bulwark against Moscow. Zelenskyy’s push for NATO membership The latest test of NATO solidarity came Friday with what Biden said was a “difficult decision” to provide cluster munitions to Ukraine. As for Ukraine’s possible entry into NATO, the alliance said in 2008 that Kyiv eventually would become a member.
