NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg Visits Ukraine Amid Tensions with Russia

Amid escalating tensions with Russia, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg made a surprise visit to Ukraine on Thursday, marking his first trip to the country since the start of the full-scale invasion by Russia.

The visit is highly sensitive and comes at a time when Ukrainian officials are urging the Western military alliance to provide a clearer path to membership.

While NATO has promised that Ukraine will eventually become a member, most allies, including the U.S., have been hesitant to create a concrete pathway while the war continues.

This has caused disagreements within the alliance, with some Eastern flank members pushing for at least a symbolic gesture towards closer ties with NATO.

The issue is expected to be a topic of debate at the upcoming NATO leaders’ summit in July.
