Zelenskyy states Ukraine's NATO membership is beneficial for Russia: Ukraine will want revenge

Volodymyr Zelenskyy, President of Ukraine, has stated that Ukraine’s NATO membership would not only guarantee the security of Ukraine but also that of Russia.

Source: Zelenskyy in an interview for Trudy Rubin, columnist of The Philadelphia Inquirer, the video of which was published by the press service of the Ukrainian leader.

Quote: "What we need is security. I am once again stressing what some of our partners in the US and in Europe are afraid of – it’s Ukraine’s NATO membership. NATO membership is good not just for Ukraine; it would provide security for Russia.

The war will end. Sadly, not everyone who has lost their family members, friends, children, will receive satisfaction. So there will be a desire for revenge. Justice is needed so that people get an answer, so that the courts with corresponding verdicts are held, and so that the world is not afraid that Putin would come back again. And justice is in a security alliance, in NATO. And Ukraine being a NATO member is for the sake of Russia’s security as well."

Details: Commenting on the claims by Donald Trump, candidate for the US President, on the plan of quick end to the war between Ukraine and Russia, Zelenskyy stated once again that ceding Ukraine’s territories is a "bad idea".

"But if the idea is to give up our territories, no, it will not solve the issue. Putin needs to feed his society, which is getting poorer every day, not with food because he has no money for that – but with information, with fake victories etc…If the idea is to cede our territories, then it’s a bad idea. It will not work; it will not lead to peace [globally] or between Ukraine and Russia," Zelenskyy stressed.
