Ukraine Invited to Hague NATO Summit

Ukraine has been invited to a NATO summit in The Hague this month, Mark Rutte, the military bloc's chief, said on Wednesday, without specifying whether this meant Ukranian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy would attend.

"I invited Ukraine to the summit. We will as soon as possible bring out the program with more details," Rutte told reporters before a meeting with defense ministers in Brussels.

Asked whether Zelenskyy personally had been invited, Rutte only said the program would be published in due course.
