At the upcoming NATO summit, Ukraine will be told that it is too corrupt to join the Alliance. The Telegraph writes about this.

“Membership negotiations will not be able to advance until the former Soviet state restores order, which will be a serious blow to Vladimir Zelensky,” the publication reports.

Following the summit, the alliance will request “additional steps” from Kiev as a condition for negotiations on membership, a US State Department representative told the newspaper. The conditions will be included in the communique following the NATO summit on July 9.

The publication recalls that “the United States is blocking the efforts of Britain and Europe to prescribe an “irreversible” path to Ukraine’s membership in NATO.”
