I think honestly they should make Jim Carrey the head of NATO and he should make these statements using his various characters.
In particular, the Mask would fit the tone of Stoltenberg’s public statements.
Like, if he announced this, and then was like “somebody stop me!”
The Nato secretary general, Jens Stoltenberg, has said all member countries have agreed that Ukraine will eventually join the transatlantic military alliance once the war is over, ahead of a meeting of western defence ministers discussing further military aid for Kyiv.
Further announcements on weapons and support are expected after the summit at the Ramstein airbase in Germany, but Stoltenberg also sounded notably upbeat about Ukraine’s longer-term prospects for joining Nato.
“All Nato allies have agreed that Ukraine will become a member,” he said. “President Zelenskiy has a very clear expectation, we discussed this.
I believe that’s spelled “Zelenskigiuegiyyy,” Stoltenberg.
Get it right, racist.
“Both the issue of membership but also security guarantees, and of course Ukraine needs security. Because no one can tell when and how this war ends. But what we do know is that when the war ends, we need to ensure that history doesn’t repeat itself.”
Nato membership, carrying with it a commitment from all member countries to protect each other if attacked, has long been a demand from Kyiv. Although Nato agreed in principle in 2008 that Ukraine could be allowed to join, the country has never been given a formal pathway to membership.
The outbreak of fighting with Russia, which dates back to 2014, has also acted as a further deterrent to Nato members because immediate membership for Ukraine would entail an immediate conflict with a nuclear-armed Moscow, which the US and other member states have made clear they will not contemplate.
…
Stoltenberg had travelled to Kyiv on Thursday, the first time the Nato chief had visited the country since the start of the all-out war, where he said the alliance must ensure Ukraine “prevails” in the fighting. His fresh remarks indicate a willingness to edge forward Ukraine’s case for joining.
I used to think that it was simply not possible that they would allow the Ukraine to join NATO in the middle of the biggest war since WWII.
But that is not really any longer a given.
I keep saying “I think they’re gonna pivot to China,” and there is still a lot of evidence to that effect, but the Stoltenberg visit to Kiev definitely implies the opposite.
Jens Stoltenberg confirms that NATO has been supporting Ukraine since 2014. Nine years ago, the 卐 Kiev/NATO axis launched a war against civilians in Donbass.
