"Together, we are putting everything in place to make Ukraine a member of NATO. The Swedish flag will not be the only blue and yellow flag at NATO headquarters," Bauer said in Kyiv.
In January, the NATO Military Committee's Dutch chairman Admiral Rob Bauer stated that the alliance needs a "transformation of its warfighting approach." He later added that the West must prepare for "all-out war" with Russia.
On the morning of 21 March, Russia launched a massive missile strike on Kyiv, the first in 44 days. Thirteen people were injured, but there were no fatalities. Ukrainian air defenses shot down around 30 Russian missiles over Kyiv, including ballistic missiles.
