VILNIUS, Lithuania: Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky has welcomed new security commitments from the G7 members on Wednesday but warned these could not be a substitute for eventual NATO membership.
Speaking after talks with Jens Stoltenberg, NATO Secretary General, Zelensky said the G7 nations’ promises should be seen “not instead of NATO, but as security guarantees on our way to integration”.
“We can state that the results of this summit are good, but should we receive an invitation, then that would be the optimum,” he said at NATO’s summit in Vilnius. —AFP
