NATO is in Ukraine's future: we just have to make sure they win the war – Biden

US President Joe Biden has emphasised that NATO is unquestionably a part of Ukraine's future. He pointed out that, as the Alliance discussed during the Vilnius summit, the only thing left to do is ensure that Ukraine prevails in the conflict before it joins NATO.
