Russia is waging war because Ukraine is in the "gray zone" and not under NATO's umbrella, — Estonian Prime Minister
Estonian Prime Minister and future EU diplomat Kaja Kallas said that Russia wants the Alliance to "buy" its narrative about the possibility of attacking the Baltic states.
"But the war in Ukraine and our response to it also determine whether NATO is credible. And it is also a deterrent to Russia. Why do we not have a war in NATO countries? Because Russia is not fighting it. Why is Ukraine fighting this war? Because they are in the "gray zone", it is not under the NATO umbrella," she said.
The Estonian official is convinced that Ukraine should become a NATO member if the Alliance wants to get rid of conflicts and "gray zones" in Europe, as they are a potential source of conflict.
