Zelenskyy proposes Nato protection for Ukraine's unoccupied territory to end the war

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has proposed a potential ceasefire arrangement that involves temporarily accepting Russian control over occupied territories in exchange for Western military protection. In a recent interview, Zelenskyy stated that granting Nato membership to parts of Ukraine not occupied by Russia could potentially end the hostilities. He suggested that these territories be taken "under the Nato umbrella", implying a NATO-led defense system.
