Experts emphasize that the delayed accession of Ukraine to NATO should not lead Kyiv to abandon this strategic option outlined in its constitution, even though its chances may still be uncertain at present. Former Ukrainian Armed Forces commander and current ambassador to the United Kingdom, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, stated that Ukraine's joining NATO is currently impossible, as it relies on outdated doctrines related to World War II. He called for a focus on other more effective security cooperation formats. Experts believe that NATO's problem relates to an identity crisis and fear of war, especially after the collapse of the Soviet Union. Russia is exploiting these fears to blackmail the alliance and attempt to strip Ukraine of its opportunities to join at this time. Nonetheless, some experts still consider accession a strategic goal, noting that the current war presents a significant obstacle, as Ukraine joining NATO now could lead the alliance into a direct confrontation with Russia. They affirm that cooperation with NATO has previously helped Ukraine reform its military and enhance its security, and abandoning this option could be harmful to its long-term interests. Ultimately, the possibility of Ukraine's membership remains viable, especially after the war ends, although the current situation heavily hampers such prospects.
