We Will Not Exchange Territories for NATO Membership: Zelensky

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky announced during a recent press conference that he refuses to exchange territories for NATO membership. He deemed such an offer a provocation.

“Exchanging our land for NATO membership (joining the alliance) is an unscrupulous idea, a provocation whether artificial or not,” he stressed.

Commenting on Ukraine's counteroffensive, Zelensky mentioned plans to expand the Armed Forces: “As for the counteroffensive, let’s see the results, I believe in our forces.”
