The alliance also pledges more aid to Ukraine, but China warns it to stop "provoking confrontation".

Nato members have pledged their support for an “irreversible path” to future membership for Ukraine, as well as more aid.

While a formal timeline for it to join the military alliance was not agreed at a summit in Washington DC, the military alliance’s 32 members said they had “unwavering” support for Ukraine’s war effort.

Nato has also announced further integration with Ukraine’s military and members have committed €40bn ($43.3bn, £33.7bn) in aid in the next year, including F-16 fighter jets and air defence support.

The bloc’s Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said: “Support to Ukraine is not charity - it is in our own security interest.”

    For nearly 20 years, NATO Allies and partner countries had military forces deployed to Afghanistan under a United Nations (UN) Security Council mandate. NATO Allies went into Afghanistan after the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States, to ensure that the country would not again become a safe haven for international terrorists to attack NATO member countries. Over the last two decades, there have been no terrorist attacks on Allied soil from Afghanistan.

    I guess it was a UN operation, not NATO. Aren’t semantics fun?!

      So why is the NATO website stating it was a NATO operation?

      The UN is another imperialistic tool. As we can see from the Genocide in Gaza the UN is utterly worthless because it’s controlled by America.

      America giving itself a UN mandate for NATO to invade countries does not absolve NATO.

      I haven’t seen people defend the invasion of Afghanistan this hard since 2010.

        Pointing out your obvious bs does not a defense make. Funny how hard you go into the paint for Israel and Russia, tho, isn’t it?
