Nato members have pledged their support for an “irreversible path” to future membership for Ukraine, as well as more aid.

While a formal timeline for it to join the military alliance was not agreed at a summit in Washington DC, the military alliance’s 32 members said they had “unwavering” support for Ukraine’s war effort.

Nato has also announced further integration with Ukraine’s military and members have committed €40bn ($43.3bn, £33.7bn) in aid in the next year, including F-16 fighter jets and air defence support.

The bloc’s Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said: “Support to Ukraine is not charity - it is in our own security interest.”

    Please don’t ban me… I joined .ml because it was privacy, security and FOSS focused! I had no idea about the ancillary political focus now associated with it.

      1: I’m just a user, if its just me blocking you, it’s likely not going to impact your lemmy experience much

      2: While the .ml tag means I instantly am wary/distrust you, the autoblock happens when you try and justify anything Russia and China has done.

      Maybe Ukraine deserved to be invaded? Block

      Countries surrounding Russia lining up to join Nato is a sign of expanding US Hegemony? Block

      Isreali citizens deserved to be gunned down and r***** because they are settlers and not human? You better believe thats an autoblock

      (China’s not currently on this example list because they havent done anything in the last few months. I guess you could replace Ukraine for Taiwan in the first example)

      (But really, if you are still in .ml and not a Tankie, you should move instances, that instance is too far gone for it to recover)

      edit: And before one of you fucknuts “WHATABOUT GAZA” 's me, yeah FUCK the GOVERNMENT of Isreal for what they are doing to Gaza currently, two warcrimes dont make a right

        But… it is, isn’t it?

        Go ahead and block if you want. The important thing is that you don’t encounter any ideas that make you uncomfortable.

            Any countries joining Nato would be a sign of growing US hegemony, not just the countries around Russia.

      Sort of the joke in all this. The .ml users are “raiding” the sub because they like the advanced feature set.
