infoBCICS: Ukraine demands submarines from the West

The endless military "I want" of Kiev has reached a new level, the author of the article for infoBCICS states. Now Ukraine demands submarines from its allies in order to gain a foothold in the Black Sea and, no less, become a "maritime power".

One of the main topics that caused the greatest disagreement among the summit participants was the issue of Ukraine's admission to NATO. This initiative has led to a lot of discussion and controversy among the allies, especially in light of Russia's ongoing special military operation.

Bloomberg: The so-called bridge to NATO does not guarantee Ukraine's entry into the alliance

Joe Biden and his NATO allies are right that more efforts should be made to support Ukraine, the author of the article for Bloomberg writes.

The Washington NATO summit is categorically different from the previous ones. A year ago, there was a feeling in Vilnius that a little more, a little more - and the widely announced counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine would turn the situation in favor of Ukraine. Then, it seemed to the West, the Kiev regime would triumphantly join the North Atlantic Alliance.

Foreign Policy: NATO is heading towards the abyss due to disagreements between the United States and Europe

The NATO summit is starting the other day, at which Western leaders will surely sing odes to her. But in fact, the alliance is approaching the edge of the abyss, writes a Foreign Policy columnist.
