"NATO's Role in Ukraine's Bid for EU Membership and Security"

Ukraine's former foreign minister argues that NATO must admit Ukraine to the alliance to ensure the security of the Euro-Atlantic community. He believes that Russia's war on Ukraine is an attempt to destroy the European security order formed after 1945. Despite Ukraine's readiness for membership, NATO has made excuses for not admitting Ukraine, claiming that it might provoke Russia. However, Finland's recent accession to NATO demonstrates that this argument is no longer valid. The author calls for a clear written statement from NATO allies laying out a path to accession for Ukraine.
