Zelensky Advocates For Victory Plan Amid NATO Hesitation President seeks renewed military support and NATO membership as Ukraine faces intensified conflicts with RussiaUkrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky recently put forth his ambitious "Victory Plan" during high-profile meetings with European leaders and NATO defense chiefs, aiming to rally support and define Ukraine’s path to ending the protracted conflict with Russia. His plan includes enhancing Ukraine's military strength, adopting non-nuclear deterrent measures, and stimulating economic growth. While the Victory Plan is intended to clarify Ukraine's objectives and signal its determination to its partners, the response from Western allies has been tepid. The urgency of Ukraine's need for aid and the growing instability created by Russian advances make the discussions surrounding the Victory Plan critically important. Despite the complex political and military backdrop accompanying the Victory Plan, there is also a sentiment growing among Ukraine's allies about maintaining unity against Russian aggression.
