British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace: Ukraine will not join NATO anytime soon

British Defense Minister Ben Wallace said that Ukraine will not join NATO in the near future. In an interview with WP, the head of the British military department said: "We must be realistic and say that this will not happen in the near future."

He spoke about the fact that despite this, the countries of the alliance should take a number of measures similar to the actions of NATO. These could include "mutual defense pacts" with Ukraine and long-term commitments to build up military forces.

The day before, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Ukraine's hopes for joining NATO "are becoming more and more distant."
