Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte said there is still no consensus among NATO member states over Ukraine’s potential accession, underscoring ongoing divisions inside the alliance as the war with Russia continues.

Rutte, who is set to become NATO’s next secretary general, emphasized that discussions are ongoing but that agreement on Ukraine’s membership timeline remains distant. Kyiv has repeatedly pressed for clearer security guarantees, arguing that NATO entry is essential for long-term stability and deterrence.
