Ukraine's ambassador to the United Kingdom, Valerii Zaluzhnyi, has said he does not believe Ukraine will join NATO. Instead, he called for attention to be directed toward developing other security alliances.

Zaluzhnyi currently serves as Ukraine's top diplomat in Britain. His comments reflect a cautious view on the prospect of NATO membership for Ukraine. The ambassador suggested that Kyiv should not rely solely on NATO as a security path, but should look for alternatives.

The statement addresses a central issue in Ukraine's foreign and defense policy. However, the source does not specify which security alliances Zaluzhnyi considers promising. It also does not indicate whether his statement represents a broader change in official strategy.
