Zelenskyy says he knows it will be “impossible” for Ukraine to join NATO while in the middle of a war.
In a joint briefing in Kyiv with Estonian President Alar Karis, he said joining the alliance was still the best security guarantee.
“But we are adequate people and understand that we will not pull any NATO country into a war,” Zelenskyy said.
“And that’s why we understand that we won’t be a member of NATO while this war is ongoing. Not because we don’t want to. Because it’s impossible.”
The Ukrainian leader has pressed to join the military alliance, but members are divided over when that should happen.
Western governments are wary of any move that could escalate tensions with Russia.
