Swedish PM and NATO chief welcomed the NATO vote: “Sweden’s membership will make us all stronger and safer.”
Western Europe may be upset with Donald Trump, but his tough approach has hastened the strengthening of the military alliance.
Just weeks ago, Dutch PM Mark Rutte said Trump “was completely right in forcing us to live up to [our NATO] commitment,” in Davos.
The Slovakian prime minister downplayed claims he wanted to leave the military alliance.
Zelensky appeared skeptical about long-term military support from the alliance.
Anti-war MEPs blamed Stoltenberg for overpromising to the Ukrainian government on NATO membership as Eastern European MEPs warned of the war’s further expansion into the region.
In contrast to the previous day, when NATO accession was denied to him, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky expressed satisfaction with the new, multi-year pledges made by G7 countries. “The security guarantees are an important development as we move into NATO, this is very important,” he said.
