Canadian Ambassador to Ukraine Roman Waschuk says NATO is not ready to start talks with Ukraine on membership of the Alliance.
Asked if it is a moment when Ukraine’s desire for full membership can be positively addressed by the Alliance, and in particular at the NATO summit in Brussels on July 11-12, he said: “I think that, unfortunately, the sense of political realism indicates that the answer to your latest question will be ‘not,’ not at this summit or under the current circumstances.”
