Jasno je, seveda, da Ukrajina ne more v Nato, dokler je država v vojni, saj bi to zahtevalo aktivacijo člena 5 sporazuma Nato (“if a NATO Ally is the victim of an armed attack, each and every other member of the Alliance will consider this act of violence as an armed attack against all members and will take the actions it deems necessary to assist the Ally attacked“). Zato bodo članice Nata tudi na predstoječem vrhu Nata 9. julija v Washingtonu morale biti inovativne v argumentaciji, zakaj Ukrajina “še ni zrela za Nato”. No, tokrat je magična beseda: Korupcija. Pač rekli bodo, da je Ukrajina doslej naredila veliko reform, vendar mora poštimati še korupcijo.
Korupcija je v Ukrajini “name of the game” vse od njene neodvisnosti in ob Srbiji in Bosni in Hercegovini (in Rusiji) naj bi bila Ukrajina najbolj koruptivna evropska država. Vendar pa korupcija v Ukrajini nikogar ne moti, ko ji dovažajo orožje ali odobravajo finančno pomoč (doslej za več kot 380 milijard dolarjev, od tega 118 milijard dolarjev za orožje) in čeprav v Washingtonu, kot priznavajo, nimajo evidence, koliko tega orožja in finančne pomoči ponikne. Toda morali so najti nek formalni razlog, da Ukrajini ne odprejo vrat. Lahko si mislimo, kateri razlog bodo našli naslednje leto.
Ukraine will be told it is currently too corrupt to join Nato, in a major blow to Volodymyr Zelensky.
The alliance will request “additional steps” from Kyiv before membership talks progress, a senior official in the US State Department said.
The position will be set out in writing in the Nato communique to be signed at the alliance’s annual summit on July 9.
“We have to step back and applaud everything that Ukraine has done in the name of reforms over the last two-plus years,” the official told The Telegraph.
“As they continue to make those reforms, we want to commend them, we want to talk about additional steps that need to be taken, particularly in the area of anti-corruption. It is a priority for many of us around the table,” the source added.
