The question really isn’t whether or not Ukraine will join NATO, but at what point will NATO join Ukraine?
“For 4 years, Ukraine has been fighting for the whole of Europe. NATO was created to fight one war … to save free Europe from Russian aggression. Ukraine is the only country that is fighting this war, and we are still discussing should we include them or not.”
