Kiev. Ukraine. Ukraine Gate – February 01, 2021 – Local News
President Volodymyr Zelenskiy hopes to raise the issue of Ukraine’s NATO membership in a conversation with US President Joe Biden.
“We are grateful for everything. But if we, Ukrainians, and Ukraine want to be an equal member of the alliance, an equal member of NATO … This is one of the most important security issues – the very security that President Biden is talking about. In this case, I have a very simple question: Mr. President, why are we still not in NATO? ” – said Zelensky.
According to him, if Ukraine was in NATO, then there would be no escalation in Donbass.
Also, the President of Ukraine thanked the EU and the US for the sanctions against Russia, but added: “Sanctions are important, but you cannot return human lives with sanctions.”
