Ukraine joining NATO "will never happen."

NATO hasn't "reached the point where it is prepared to offer membership or an invitation to Ukraine."

“As long as I am head of the Slovak government, I will direct the MPs that are under my control... never to agree to Ukraine's joining NATO.”

"We cannot admit Ukraine into NATO immediately."

Ukraine is "fully prepared and able to be a member of NATO."

We will take "concrete steps to bring Ukraine closer to NATO."

"Ukraine's path and bridge towards NATO membership is now irreversible."

"Ukraine is closer to NATO than ever before, and will continue on this path until [it] become[s] a member of our alliance."

"Ukraine will join NATO. It is not a question of if, but of when."

"I think it's extremely unlikely that he [Putin] would move in that [using tactical nuclear weapons] direction in the current conflict."

"I don't see Putin deciding to use a nuclear weapon."

"There are reasons to believe Moscow would not press the nuclear button."

"Though it is unlikely that Russia will use nuclear weapons in Ukraine, the risks are real."

Putin has sent many signals that "he will use battlefield nuclear weapons from his arsenal of 6,000 such weapons to win the war."

"Well, yes, he [Putin] would [launch a nuclear attack]."

Would Putin Detonate Nuclear Weapons in Ukraine?

Russia's Defense Ministry announced on Tuesday that the Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile system has entered active service in Belarus. The ministry released video footage showing mobile combat vehicles carrying the missile system during training exercises in a forested area.

Russia first tested the Oreshnik in November 2024, striking a facility in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro. President Vladimir Putin described the attack as a successful test and stated that the missile's warheads travel at speeds of up to Mach 10.

The deployment announcement comes as U.S. President Donald Trump hosted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at his Florida resort on Sunday, with Trump stating that Kyiv and Moscow were closer than ever to a peace settlement. However, the two sides remain divided on key issues.

Putin stated in December that the Oreshnik would enter combat duty before year's end and warned that Moscow would seek to extend its gains in Ukraine if Kyiv and its Western allies reject the Kremlin's demands in peace talks.
