Ukraine’s new commander spoke with chair of NATO’s Military Committee. Result: body will visit Ukraine in October, for first time in eight years
Ukraine’s security is NATO's security, NATO Military Committee Chair Admiral Giuseppe Cavo Dragone says.
NATO's top military body, the Military Committee, is set to visit Ukraine for the first time in nearly a decade, according to the General Staff. This marks a significant shift in the alliance's approach to its eastern member, as the last such visit occurred eight years ago. Commander-in-Chief Mykhailo Drapatyi spoke with Admiral Giuseppe Cavo Dragone, the chair of NATO's Military Committee, about the upcoming trip.
Drapatyi informed the admiral about Ukraine's priorities, including long-range strikes, flexible infantry tactics, and the robotization of the front line, as well as the focus on air defense against Russian missile threats. Ukraine frames its relationship with NATO as mutually beneficial, with the country transferring combat experience to the alliance and receiving support in return.
Admiral Cavo Dragone reaffirmed NATO's continued military support for Ukraine's defense of its sovereignty and territorial integrity, emphasizing that Ukraine's security is inextricably linked to the alliance's own security.
