NATO Secretary General, Mark Rutte , said on Thursday that Ukraine would be a NATO member state in the future.
He also acknowledged that he was unable to say exactly when the country would join the transatlantic organization.
Arriving at the meeting of the Atlantic Alliance’s defense ministers in Brussels from today to Friday, Rutte said that at the moment, it seemed that Ukraine would become the 33rd ally, with NATO currently having 32 members, while admitting that another country could join the transatlantic organization before Kiev. A demonstration of NATO’s determination to thwart Moscow’s plans.
