Commend @NATO partners' understanding of all the risks and challenges we face. NATO leaders confirmed that 🇺🇦 will become a member of the Alliance & the #MAP is an integral part of the membership process. 🇺🇦 deserves due appreciation of its role in ensuring Euro-Atlantic security

UPDATE 6/14/21 4:17 PM EDT: An earlier headline stated Zelensky announced that Ukraine was joining NATO. Zelensky was apparently noting that Ukraine had been following a path to membership extended in 2008 as soon as it completes addressing some parts of the membership criteria laid out in that plan, including addressing corruption. National Zero regrets the confusion.
