Ukraine deserves to become the 33rd member of the North Atlantic Alliance and will do its best to make it happen, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy has said in a joint statement with NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte on Thursday.

"Ukraine really deserves to become the 33rd member of NATO once, and we will do our best to make it happen. That is why the first item of the Victory Plan is an invitation to NATO. Ukrainians have shown that we are able to defend our common values," the head of state said.
