Ukraine has been a NATO partner since 1994.
Ukraine is a country in Eastern Europe that has been dealing with political turmoil and conflict for decades. After the fall of the Soviet Union, Ukraine was able to declare its independence in 1991. However, Russia has not always supported this decision and has interfered with Ukrainian politics on multiple occasions. This led to the 2014 Ukrainian revolution and Russian intervention in Crimea, which ultimately led to Ukraine being cut off from the Black Sea. Today, Ukraine is still at odds with Russia and is trying to establish itself as a sovereign nation.
Ukraine was invited to join NATO in 2008, but membership was put on hold due to political instability within the country. While many Ukrainians would like their country to join NATO, it’s unlikely that this will happen anytime soon due to geopolitical factors.
