Sweden and Finland being invited to join NATO is ‘bittersweet’: Ukrainian MP

Ukrainian MP Inna Sovsun says it’s “bittersweet” that Sweden and Finland have formally been invited to join NATO.

“On the one hand, we are happy for our friends from Finland and Sweden for joining NATO,” she told Sky News host Chris Kenny.

“On the other hand, Ukraine has been saying that we want to join NATO for years now, and we do not seem to be welcome. “I understand we’re in a territorial dispute right now, but truth be told, it took three months for Finland and Sweden to join since they actually announced that they want to join, and for us, it’s a road of over 10 years now, and we’re still not near joining NATO all together.”
