'We need a clear signal': Zelenskyy demands concrete steps on Ukraine's NATO membership

Firstpost  

Ukraine hopes to get a clear indication from NATO at a July 11-12 summit in Vilnius if it can join the military alliance when the war ends Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has asked NATO leaders to take concrete steps to facilitate the country’s entry into the alliance as he received support during a visit to Prague from the Czech president, who backed Kyiv’s bid to join the alliance. Emphasising the fact that NATO has still not given a clear-cut response on Kyiv’s inclusion with the war still going on strong, Zelenskyy said that his country deserves more than the general statement of more than 10 years standing that the door to NATO was merely “open”. Ukraine hopes to get a clear indication from NATO at a July 11-12 summit in Vilnius if it can join the military alliance when the war ends. Not that the door is open – this is not enough.” Meanwhile, the Czech Republic has reiterated its support for Kyiv’s entry into NATO since the launch of Russia’s “special military operation” in Ukraine.
