Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy says any proposal to join the military alliance should be extended to all parts of the country that fall under internationally recognized borders

President Volodymyr Zelensky has suggested that the parts of Ukraine under his control should be taken "under the Nato umbrella" to try and stop the "hot phase" of the war. In a long, wide-ranging interview with Sky News, the Ukrainian president was asked whether he would accept Nato membership, but only on the territory that Kyiv currently holds.
