It is reported that on September 30, local time, Zelensky signed an application document to accelerate Ukraine's accession to NATO . He said that Ukraine has actually "entered" NATO at present and the application was submitted to make this fact law. It is reported that since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Ukraine has been applying to join NATO.
NATO has repeatedly welcomed Ukraine's application. However, more than seven months have passed since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, and Ukraine has not yet joined NATO.
Before this, Zelensky said that Ukraine had almost given up its plan to join NATO. However, Kiev now wants to accelerate its joining NATO, which is closely related to the recent development of the situation in Russia and Ukraine.
It is reported that on the day Zelensky announced that Ukraine would accelerate its accession to NATO, Putin signed the treaty of Khlsson , Zaporoze , Lugansk and Donetsk to join the Russian Federation.
And the day before, Putin had announced his recognition of Khlsong and Zaporoze's independence. Therefore, Zelensky's announcement that Ukraine will accelerate its application to join NATO is a response to Russia's above actions.
However, Ukraine was backstabled by Western countries. It is reported that after Zelensky signed his application to join NATO, the United States said that it is not a good time for Ukraine to join NATO.
reported that on September 30, local time, US President's National Security Assistant Sullivan attended the regular press conference of White House and responded to Ukraine's application to "accelerate joining" NATO.
Sullivan first said that the US firmly believes that NATO pursues an open policy and welcomes every partner to join. But it is not the best time for NATO to accept Ukraine, and the relevant process should be held at other times.
Secondly, Sullivan emphasized that the best way for the United States and NATO to provide support to Ukraine is to provide more practical and broader support, such as transporting weapons and ammunition to Ukraine.
He also added that NATO's acceptance of new members should be recognized by all current member states. The implication is that some NATO countries oppose Ukraine's accession to NATO.
It is reported that NATO member states Hungary have repeatedly publicly opposed Ukraine's accession to NATO. In addition, Hungary has refused to impose sanctions on Russia since the outbreak of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict and also opposes the West providing a large amount of weapon assistance to Ukraine.
Hungary believes that the current Western practices will only make the conflict more intense. It has to be said that among NATO countries, Hungary is a rare country that has not followed the United States on the stance of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
. Regarding Ukraine's hope to accelerate its accession to NATO, NATO Secretary-General Stoltenberg also responded a few days ago. He stressed that NATO's door is still open.
But when talking about when Ukraine will join NATO, Stoltenberg said that the matter must be decided through consensus among 30 NATO member states.
Obviously, NATO, like the United States, also believes that Ukraine's current joining NATO is not a wise choice. Stoltenberg also said that NATO's current focus is to provide immediate support to Ukraine to help it fight Russia's "invasion".
In fact, the reason why the West does not directly answer Ukraine's joining NATO is to avoid angering Russia. They are very clear that once NATO starts pushing for the process of adopting Ukraine, it will be retaliated by Russia.
Former U.S. Secretary of State Kissinger also warned the Biden administration about this, saying that letting Ukraine join NATO is not a wise choice. He also said the coronavirus situation is becoming increasingly tense and may even move towards the direction of nuclear conflict.
After Zelensky signed an application to accelerate his joining NATO, Russia also warned him, saying that Zelensky's move was "requesting that the three battles broke out as soon as possible."
It is reported that in the early morning of October 1 local time, Medvedev, vice chairman of the Russian Federation Security Conference, posted a message on a social platform, responding to Ukraine's hope to accelerate its participation in NATO.
Medvedev expressed in a sarcastic tone that it was a "good idea" for Zelensky to join NATO as soon as possible. He did so in a request for NATO to speed up the launch of World War III.
It is not difficult to see from Medvedev's statement that Ukraine's accession to NATO is one of Russia's red lines. If Zelensky's idea is realized, the Russian-Ukrainian conflict will escalate into a conflict between NATO and Russia, and then into a global war. Western countries are also very clear about this, so in order to avoid angering Russia, they are destined not to let Zelensky's wish come true.
