Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky affirmed that Ukraine will keep striving for NATO membership, despite opposition from certain alliance members.

By including Ukraine, NATO has the potential to significantly strengthen its position. Consequently, we should collaborate closely to ensure that Ukraine can eventually become a member of NATO, similar to how Finland joined. Achieving this won’t be straightforward; however, despite some opposition, we remain committed to making progress toward this objective. Volodymyr Zelensky declared.

He highlighted that the Ukrainian military is among the most advanced globally when it comes to contemporary combat techniques, suggesting this could bolster the Alliance’s strength.
