Macron urged NATO members to point out to Ukraine a "specific way" to the Alliance after the war

The Jens Stoltenberg Secretary General, in turn, expects that Ukraine will release as many territories as possible so that the word Kiev becomes significant at the NATO membership in negotiations. French President Emmanuel Macron called on NATO member states to help Ukraine put Ukraine on a "specific path to post-war membership in the Alliance. " He stated this on Wednesday, June 28, speaking with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg at the Elysee Palace in Paris.

The publication notes that in the 2008 Bucharest Declaration, NATO members promised Ukraine and Georgia that they would join the Western Military Alliance once. Ukraine has applied for NATO membership in September 2022, with the support of several countries. "We will need to define the way to give the form of Ukraine's accession to NATO, which we opened in 2008 in Bucharest," Macron said. According to him, decisions made at a summit in Vilnius will oblige NATO for "many years to come.

" "I mean, above all, the support of Ukraine, which we have to take on long -term obligations," the President of France emphasized. For its part, NATO Stoltenberg Secretary General noted that the strength of Ukraine's position at the negotiation table would depend on how many territories occupied by the Russian Federation will be able to return.
