NATO chief: Ukraine not in strong position to negotiate with Putin

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte said on Wednesday that Ukraine is not in a strong enough position to begin negotiating an end to the war with Russia and said any deal struck must “prevent the Russians from getting what they want.”

In an interview with Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade, Rutte stressed the importance of striking a favorable deal for Ukraine, saying it will set a precedent for nations who have similar goals to Russia.

“I think that’s crucial that we have a good deal because the whole world will be watching what type of deal will be struck between Russia and Ukraine when it comes to it,” Rutte said.

“We have to make sure that Ukraine is in a position of more strength than they are at the moment,” Rutte added, “so that a deal can be struck which is favorable not to the Russians — and therefore to China, North Korea and Iran — because they all will be watching.”
