During the World Economic Forum in Davos, NATO's head urged global leaders to enhance their support for Ukraine. Mark Rutte emphasized the critical need to alter the war's trajectory, citing three reasons: for Ukraine's sovereignty, to counteract emerging alliances between Russia, China, North Korea, and Iran, and to prevent higher military expenditures for NATO in the future. Rutte reassured that Ukraine would eventually join NATO, while stressing the importance of sustainable peace, highlighting lessons from past negotiations. Ukrainian businessman Victor Pinchuk reinforced the message that national security must prioritize preventing Russian success in Ukraine.
Rutte emphasizes that the trajectory of the war must change for Ukraine's benefit, to avoid empowering allies of Russia like North Korea and China.
Ukraine's membership in NATO is affirmed, highlighting that a bad deal with Russia could increase military costs significantly for NATO members.
Pinchuk warns that allowing Russia to win would undermine national security interests, stressing that giving in is not an option.
