Columnist Hal Brands said that Ukraine will not be able to become part of NATO in the foreseeable future. He wrote about this in an article for Bloomberg .
“Kyiv can become a victim of cruel irony, when only one condition makes NATO membership impossible,” the author said.
According to Brands, the process of integration into the North Atlantic Alliance, according to the rules, is impossible if there are territorial disputes or armed conflicts with other states on the territory of the country.
At the same time, the West can remain an ally of Ukraine, supplying weapons and heavy equipment to the country. In this scenario, Kyiv will be heavily dependent on Western partners, and the armed forces will become difficult to maintain due to the decline of the economy.
Earlier, Secretary of State Anthony Blinken said that Washington has no doubts that Ukraine will win in the confrontation with Russia. In addition, he warned against moving to a “frozen conflict” situation.
