Over 60 Foreign Policy Experts Issue Letter Urging NATO Against Advancing Ukraine Membership

"Days ago, and just around the corner from the summit's start, dozens of foreign policy experts have issued a letter which sounds the alarm on the question of advancing Ukrainian membership. The group is warning that should Kiev ever be admitted, it would trigger NATO's Article 5, and require Western states to enter a nuclear-armed conflict with Russia.

"The closer NATO comes to promising that Ukraine will join the alliance once the war ends, the greater the incentive for Russia to keep fighting the war," the letter, signed by over 60 analysts, reads. "The challenges Russia poses can be managed without bringing Ukraine into NATO." ZH
