NATO almost invited Ukraine into group, but then there was Zelenskyy's outburst

"Gimme"

Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stepped on a rake when he annoyed NATO leaders by calling them "weak." 

“Ukraine also deserves respect,” Zelensky bellowed, blaming NATO’s hesitancy for giving Russia “motivation to continue its terror.”

“Uncertainty is weakness,” he concluded.

British Defense Secretary Ben Wallace was clearly annoyed and on Wednesday said that a "slight word of caution" was in order for Zelenskyy, and suggested that he ought to try showing a little "gratitude" if he expected allied countries to “give up their stocks” of weapons to defend his nation [unlike Joe Biden who would give up his granddaughter, Navy, for political reasons].

But Zelenskyy expressed gratitude to Britain for “decisions taken to provide our country with long-term financial support” soon after Wallace criticized him, however, President Biden's handlers were so angry at Zelenskyy for his complaints, that it "considered scaling back the 'invitation' for Ukraine to join NATO, according to the Washington Post.

At the conclusion of the Vilnius summit, NATO deemed to declare that “Ukraine’s future is in NATO” and promised that Kyiv will be invited at some point in the future, which is precisely the approach that made Zelenskyy angry because he wants what he wants when he wants it.

“We will be in a position to extend an invitation to Ukraine to join the alliance when allies agree and conditions are met,” the Vilnius communiqué said.

It is possible that should Ukraine be admitted in NATO, Russia will do something drastic--hopefully not something nuclear.

At one point, Zelensky threatened to boycott the Vilnius summit unless a firm timetable for Ukrainian membership was put forward. Who does he think he is?

Maybe it's time to flip him off.
