Kissinger: Ukraine should be treated like a NATO member

In the past, the former secretary of state considered Ukraine “a set of territories that were once united with Russia.”

Former United States Secretary of State Henry Kissinger has changed his attitude toward Ukraine since Russia’s full-scale invasion began. He said this while presenting his new book Leadership: Six Studies in World Strategy, the Wall Street Journal writes on August 13.

The publication recalls that earlier Kissinger considered Ukraine “a set of territories that were once united with Russia.” In his opinion, for the sake of stability, Ukraine needs to act as a buffer between the West and Russia, considering the Ukrainian territories as its own.

However, after Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine and previous aggression against the Ukrainian state, Kinssinger changed his mind.

“Now I think, one way or another, formally or not, Ukraine after this should be treated as a member of NATO,” Kinsinger said.

And when asked by the Wall Street Journal about his controversial career, the former secretary of state replied that he doesn’t bother himself with questions about whether he could have done something differently.

Recall that at the end of May, Kissinger made an annoying statement about the need to hand over the Ukrainian territories to Russia in order to maintain close relations between Moscow and the West. His words were criticized by Western politicians and experts. Read more about this in the material that shocked Putin: reaction to Kissinger about Ukraine.

A few days later, the politician said that he was misunderstood and that he was “unconditional for the independence of Ukraine and its important role in Europe.”
