The US authorities believe that Ukraine should not join NATO, and territorial issues can be resolved by diplomacy. According to the source, the United States is "hostile" towards Ukraine's membership in NATO and prefers to provide it with security guarantees bilaterally.

The Kremlin stressed that Ukraine's admission to NATO would create a new significant danger for Russia.Earlier, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said that all allies in the North Atlantic Alliance agree Ukraine should become a member of the alliance. Hungarian PM Viktor Orban reacted with surprise to this statement.
