Quote from Medvedev: "Everyone knows how that ended. The Alliance and our country are currently on the edge of war (in fact, they are already over that edge)."

Details: Medvedev also said that the Ukraine-NATO Council will stop existing because "one of the parties will cease existing".

Background:

  • On 11 July, the leaders of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) approved the establishment of the NATO-Ukraine Council, a new body designed to facilitate cooperation between Kyiv and the Alliance.
  • Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy believes that the NATO-Ukraine Council will be a tool for Ukraine's integration into the Alliance.
