Ukraine invited to NATO summit in The Hague
Ukraine has received an invitation to the upcoming NATO summit in The Hague.
“We have been invited to the NATO summit. I think that is important,” Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
The invitation was extended to Zelensky during his meeting with NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte in Vilnius.
Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha has been tasked with preparing the meeting.
Zelensky did not say whether he would travel to the Netherlands himself.
The summit of the member-states of the NATO military alliance is scheduled to take place in The Hague within the next three weeks.
Ukraine has been fighting Russian invasion with Western support for more than three years.
Preventing Kiev from joining NATO, which is enshrined in the country’s constitution, is one of the Kremlin’s main reasons for having launched the assault on its neighbour, Ukraine. (dpa/NAN)
