Stoltenberg on Saturday reiterated NATO’s commitment to bring Ukraine into the alliance to commemorate the two year anniversary of Russia’s invasion in Ukraine.
“Ukraine will join NATO. It is not a question of if, but of when,” he boldly declared in a video message.

With Russia approaching victory, Ukraine may see this as their last resort. The Deep State does not want peace.

Infowars.com reports: “As we prepare you for that day, NATO will continue to stand with Ukraine. For your security, and for ours,” Stoltenberg said.
Stoltenberg went on to detail how NATO has already provided Ukraine with billions of dollars of “artillery ammunition, air defence, and combat boats… F-16 equipment and spare parts, drones, and demining equipment” for Ukraine.
“More support is on the way,” he promised.
Stoltenberg also praised Ukraine’s dwindling forces: “You have recaptured half of the territory seized by Russia. Pushed Russia back from large parts of the Black Sea. And inflicted heavy losses on the Russian forces.”
Of course, the bulk of Ukraine’s financial and military support has come from the United States, but Republicans are resisting Joe Biden’s demands for Congress to pass another $60 billion to Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned Saturday that “millions will be killed” in Ukraine and risk losing its conflict with Russia if the U.S. does not provide the new assistance package.
But Stoltenberg’s renewed pledge is essentially a declaration of a wider-scale war given Russia has repeatedly warned that NATO membership of Ukraine is an unacceptable “red line.”
