On the Horizon: Ukraine's Maiden Appearance at the NATO Hague Summit, June 24-25
International community extends an invitation to Ukraine for discussions at the Hague summit, as confirmed by NATO.
Jump on the gossip bandwagon! Ukraine's got an invite to mingle with the big kids at the NATO heads bash in The Hague. A NATO rep spilled the beans to AFP, confirming Ukraine's presence at the upcoming shindig. The full agenda'll be unveiled soon, but get ready to chew the fat about Russian military aggression in Ukraine and NATO member nations strengthening their defenses.
The peeps over at Ukraine's been boozing about this get-together for quite some time now. President Volodymyr Zelensky's been a regular at the last two parties in Vilnius and Washington. But, with NATO's Secretary General, Mark Rutte, keeping mum on a possible Ukrainian invite, the buzz was barely audible.
You might recall NATO's been hyping Ukraine's membership since the tiff with Mother Russia. However, the US government under President Trump's been a tad grumpy about extending the olive branch to Ukraine. Zelensky hinted at the invitation during a NATO meeting in Vilnius on Monday, but whether he'll personally grace the event remains a mystery. Both NATO and Zelensky's team have remained tight-lipped on the matter.
So, mark your calendars, folks! The NATO summit's going down in the Dutch city on June 24-25. Get ready for two days of high-stakes diplomacy and steely gazes. It's gonna be a doozy!
