Ukraine has rebuked a NATO official's suggestion on Tuesday that the country could gain membership into the alliance in exchange for giving up some territory to Russia.
Ukrainian Foreign Ministry spokesman Oleg Nikolenko reiterated the long-held stance by Kyiv that they would not willingly give up territory in any diplomatic talks in response to comments made by NATO chief of staff Stian Jenssen."We have always assumed that the Alliance, like Ukraine, does not trade territories.
Ukraine has sought to join the alliance, though acceptance into it would ultimately have to come once the war ends to ensure NATO doesn’t get dragged into the conflict. NATO’s Article 5 requires any alliance member to view an attack on another alliance member as if it was an attack against itself, which is why NATO would be pulled into the war if Ukraine entered the alliance before the war ended.
