Ukraine asks NATO to invite it to join Alliance at foreign ministers' meeting

Reuters writes about this, having studied the letter by Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha.

It is noted that Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha asked his NATO colleagues at a meeting in Brussels to invite Kyiv to join the North Atlantic Alliance.

In the letter, he insists that now is the right time to invite Ukraine to NATO.

‘I urge you to endorse the decision to invite Ukraine to join the Alliance as one of the outcomes of the NATO Foreign Ministerial Meeting on 3-4 December 2024,’ Sybiha wrote.

The minister also stressed that the invitation ‘will become the Allies' adequate response to Russia's constant escalation of the war it has unleashed, the latest demonstration of which is the involvement of tens of thousands of North Korean troops and the use of Ukraine as a testing ground for new weapons’

• On November 26, during the plenary session of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, members adopted a resolution calling on the coalition countries to accept Ukraine into the Alliance as soon as possible.
