Moscow Paid Attention to Words About Possibility of Ukraine's NATO Membership

MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 16th June, 2021) Moscow paid attention to US President Joe Biden's statement about the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO, and Russian President Vladimir Putin, if necessary, will voice the country's position on the issue, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Wednesday.

"As for Ukraine, we heard that, that President Biden hypothetically allowed the possibility of Ukraine joining NATO. This is a new element. No such statements have been made before.
