At a joint press conference held in Kyiv, NATO Secretary General Mark Ryutte participated alongside Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and expressed his views on the country's future security. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
According to him, Ukraine must receive clear and reliable security guarantees from Western countries. Ryutte stated that before any possible negotiations between Zelenskyy and Russian President Vladimir Putin begin, Ukraine needs to have strong friends.
The NATO Secretary General emphasized that work is currently being carried out precisely in this direction. The head of the North Atlantic Alliance noted that security guarantees should compel Russia not to attempt to occupy any part of Ukrainian territory in the future.
He stated that NATO and the United States play a key role in this process. Additionally, he highlighted that the security guarantees provided by Europe and the US will serve as a secondary defense for Ukraine, while the primary and most important defense is the strengthening of the Ukrainian army itself.
Experts believe that Ryutte's statement holds strategic significance for Ukraine and could mark a new stage in the country's security system. This is considered an important factor in ensuring reliable and stable security for Ukraine in the future.
