Rasmussen believes that some member countries can create a coalition of military aid to Ukraine.
NATO member countries can send troops to Ukraine if Ukraine does not receive guarantees of membership and guarantees for the transition period at the NATO summit. This is what former NATO Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said, The Guardian reports.
In his opinion, if NATO fails to decide on the steps for Ukraine’s membership or its security guarantee at the summit in Vilnius, “there is a clear possibility that some countries may act individually.”
“It is known that Poland is very involved in providing concrete assistance to Ukraine. And I do not exclude that Poland will be more involved in this context at the national level, and the Baltic countries will follow, perhaps even with the possibility of deploy. troops on the ground,” he said.
Rasmussen said that Warsaw would “seriously consider forming a coalition of the willing if Ukraine gets nothing in Vilnius,” and that it would be perfectly legitimate for Ukraine to seek such military assistance.
As you know, Rasmussen was one of the developers of the draft security guarantees for Ukraine.
Recall that on the eve of President Volodymyr Zelensky said that he will not participate in the July NATO summit if there are no security guarantees or signals for membership in the Alliance.
