Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky appears to be unhappy with reports that the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) summit currently underway in Vilnius, Lithuania, will culminate with an offer of increased support for Ukraine against the Russian invasion, but not an offer of full membership in NATO.
Zelensky used social media on Tuesday morning to assure NATO members that Ukraine will always “value our allies,” but would insist on “respect” — and he evidently feels the proposed wording for inviting Kyiv to begin a lengthy process of applying for NATO membership, with an uncertain time frame and numerous conditions to be met, is disrespectful.

“The Hawks felt betrayed by Reagan when Reagan agreed to meet Gorby at Rejkjavik.”
Yep...that’s why we elected Reagan!
Nice try, kid.
Your credibility is shot.
Reagan was pure class and the epitome of a statesman. He was a proud American and I was proud of him, and our country. Fast forward to today, and we’re surrounded by phony conservatives, beating Joe Biden’s war drum. Reagan wouldn’t have had anything to do with them. They’re cowards.
I bet he smells like sulphur.
100%
Ah, John. You can’t argue facts so you resort to the time-honored ploy of assuming facts not in evidence, jumping to conclusions, and rushing to judgment: All acts of someone who has lost the argument.
I have, on several occasions here on FR (and probably to you directly), said I am taking Ukraine’s side in defending itself against Russia’s invasion IN SPITE OF who its president is.
Get that, John? IN SPITE OF.
Really disgusted to see people on here Ventriloquizing a dead Ronald Reagan.
He’s your Zelensky, not ours.
Nice try, kid.
“Eisenhower had his chance with Hungary (1956), LBJ had his chance with Czechoslovakia (1968), and REAGAN had his chance with Poland (1981, I think).”
Ah; but, Bob: Those were not invasions; they were all internal Warsaw Pact matters. It’s like the old adage: When your enemy is attacking itself, let it do it.
“Ah; but, Bob: Those were not invasions; they were all internal Warsaw Pact matters. It’s like the old adage: When your enemy is attacking itself, let it do it.”
As far as I know, those were OTHER COUNTRIES, just like Ukraine, but I agree, they were in the backyard of the Soviets, just as Ukraine is in the backyard of Russia.
He wants in so he can get NATO in the war
“You backed and supported a Clown show.”
A country fighting for its very survival is not a clown show. But, Jon, appeasers and defeatists such as yourself would never understand that.
Don’t they get it? Admitting Ukraine is a formal declaration of War with Russia (and her Allies). This one act IS the Start of WW III. Many in Europe do not want this—they have seen first hand the horror of world war. We in The USA have not but, if it starts—we will. The whole world will be changed by such a terrible action—and not for the better.
“As far as I know, those were OTHER COUNTRIES, just like Ukraine, but I agree, they were in the backyard of the Soviets, just as Ukraine is in the backyard of Russia.”
Other countries in name only: They were captive states of the USSR, controlled and dominated by the Soviet Union, and all three were members of the Warsaw Pact alliance. Their respective governments held office only with the approval of the Soviet Union. To equate Ukraine with those Warsaw Pact countries simply because they were all in Russia’s “backyard” is folly, Bob. The US is in Russia’s “backyard,” too, Bob (Alaska); so is Japan; so is China; so is Mongolia; so is Finland. By your peculiar logic they are all fair game for and deserving of Russian invasion simply because they are Russia’s neighbors. Because, Bob, in your special little world proximity is justification for invasion in and of itself.
“They used artillery just as the Russians / Ukraine are doing...”
Please refrain from the PERSONAL ATTACKS, at least when you’re posting on THIS SITE, as we had three pro-Ukrainians zotted on Sunday, and thus I wouldn’t recommend testing JR’s patience with you.

NATO thugs and criminals shouldn't be surprised when they get a righteous punch in the nose. I realize Neocons like you love a fight, but when are you going to the front?
