Ukraine's NATO Membership: Frustration, Declarations, and Compromises

TL;DR Summary
As the NATO Summit continues, President Joe Biden faces questions about Ukraine's path to NATO membership, with concerns from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on full display. While the final communique removes one barrier to entry, there are few concrete steps or timelines offered by NATO as a significant show of support for Ukraine. Zelensky expressed frustration over the lack of clarity and readiness to invite Ukraine to NATO. However, the US is expected to announce support for Ukraine's military capabilities, and Biden has emphasized that Ukraine is not ready to join NATO until Russia's war in Ukraine ends.
