Because that&#8217;s not security. It&#8217;s about finances, money, weapons, support for the defense industry\u2014but no one is ready to send soldiers. Only NATO membership and NATO&#8217;s Article 5 can ensure real security,&#8221; the fifth President stated. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"\"\u0412\u044b \u043d\u0443\u0436\u0434\u0430\u044e\u0442\u0441\u044f \u0432 hellish sanctions to motivate Russia to end the war\" | \u041f\u0435\u0442\u0440\u043e \u041f\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0448\u0435\u043d\u043a\u043e\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IvPJBvsBhOE?feature=oembed\" width=\"678\" height=\"381\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p> &#8220;Now everyone understands that this is Russia&#8217;s war against Europe and against NATO \u2013 following the appearance of attack drones in Polish airspace, over the Baltics, and in Scandinavia. And we must remain united to protect continental security from a Russian attack. Russia is currently attacking our critical energy infrastructure, civilian infrastructure, and ordinary people every night and every day,&#8221; Poroshenko noted. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-95772\" src=\"https:\/\/eurosolidarity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/img_4984-e1760531366440-1024x583.png\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eurosolidarity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/img_4984-e1760531366440-1024x583.png 1024w, https:\/\/eurosolidarity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/img_4984-e1760531366440-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/eurosolidarity.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/img_4984-e1760531366440-768x437.png 768w\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n<p> &#8220;The best way is an immediate ceasefire\u2014in the air, at sea, and on land. We need to build more than just walls of drones. We need to build walls against drones. We need to build fortifications. We need to lay minefields. We need to create weapons depots in Ukraine. This will help. It will be faster and cheaper to stop Russia,&#8221; Poroshenko believes.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;To motivate Russia to stop the war, several important things must be done. Point number one: more weapons in Ukraine. Point number two: joint investment in the defense industry. Point number three: hellish sanctions against Russia. Point number four: keep the European Union&#8217;s doors open to Ukraine, based on its merits of reform. And point number five: keep NATO&#8217;s doors open to Ukraine. We need unity and solidarity. Together, we are much more powerful financially than Russia. Together, we are much more powerful militarily. And this arms race will do to Russia the same thing that the arms race did to the Soviet Union in the 1990s,&#8221; Poroshenko is convinced.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;We must now have a special program, first and foremost, to stop the war and build Ukraine&#8217;s defense potential using Russia&#8217;s frozen assets. And then, to restore Ukraine and create a post-industrial economy. I have no doubt that Ukraine can count not only on public finances, not only on frozen assets, but also on foreign direct investment, private investment. I know how to do this. The most important things for us are membership in the European Union, membership in NATO, security, and reforms,&#8221; the fifth President believes.<\/p>\n<p> &#8220;Ukraine&#8217;s economy is five times smaller, and it&#8217;s many times smaller than Russia&#8217;s, but with integration with the US, NATO, and Europe, we can work miracles. We can stop Russia, we can defeat it. And my advice to European nations: you&#8217;ve already shown how to live without Russian gas. Please, learn to live without Russian oil, and please, to our victory, learn to live without Russia,&#8221; Poroshenko urged.<\/p>\n<p> Also follow <strong>&#8220;Pryamy&#8221;<\/strong> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Facebook<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/prm_ua\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Twitter<\/a> , <a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/+rtV4dxYu2_cyNjVi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Telegram<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/pryamiy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Petro Poroshenko, speaking on TVP World following the NATO Parliamentary Assembly in the Slovenian capital, outlined the key messages he conveyed to Ukraine&#8217;s allies. &#8220;Point number one: keep NATO&#8217;s doors open for Ukraine.
