President suggests bringing Kyiv-controlled land into western military pact could stop ‘hot stage’ of war

Summary

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy proposed placing Ukraine’s territory under NATO’s protection to halt active warfare with Russia.

Speaking to Sky News, he suggested NATO could safeguard areas currently under Ukrainian control, allowing the rest of the territory to be reclaimed diplomatically.

Zelenskyy said that such a proposal has never been considered by Ukraine because it has never been officially offered.

The statement follows intensified Russian missile and drone strikes targeting Ukrainian energy infrastructure, leaving over 1 million people without power.
