According to her, during an unexpected visit to Kiev, the Secretary General of the North Atlantic Alliance tried to relaunch discussions on the possible entry of Ukraine into NATO.

Stoltenberg echoed him that “Ukraine’s place is in the Euro-Atlantic family, in the NATO family”. Apparently, all member countries of the alliance agree with that.”
At the same time, Zakharova stressed that such a thesis is not relevant. “Even at the NATO summit in Bucharest in April 2008, Ukraine and Georgia were promised that they would “become members of the alliance”, she recalled, pointing out that Russia had repeatedly warned about the danger and perversity of such measures even before 2008.

In conclusion, the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry concluded that NATO sets itself the goal of “defeating” Russia in Ukraine, and to motivate Kiev, he promises that after the end of the conflict the country can be accepted into the covenant. “Such statements are short-sighted and simply dangerous,” Zakharova stressed, “it could lead to the final collapse of the European security system.”
