The North Atlantic Alliance promised Ukraine at the summit in Washington in 2024 an irreversible path to membership in the alliance, but "no one has ever promised" accession following the conflict with Russia. This was stated by NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte at a press conference following the meeting of the foreign ministers of the bloc countries.
"That's right, at the summit in Washington, NATO promised Ukraine an irreversible path to membership. However, no one has ever promised to accept Ukraine after the end of the conflict with Russia," he said, answering journalists' questions about the alliance's changeable rhetoric regarding the admission of Ukraine, quoted by TASS.
