Zelenskyy's recent comments indicate a significant shift in his approach, suggesting that Ukraine could end the war without reclaiming all its territory, provided it secures NATO membership.
In an interview, President Zelenskyy emphasized that an end to the hot phase of the war is contingent upon NATO security guarantees for the territory Ukraine effectively controls.
Zelenskyy pointed out that while immediate territorial return by Russia is not a precondition for peace, Ukraine believes it can negotiate these territories back diplomatically in the future.
He stresses that securing NATO's protection for current Ukrainian-held areas is urgent, and without such guarantees, the risk of further aggression from Putin remains.
