everything has been worked out, we also have a charter on a special partnership, there is a council, ukraine-nato, which was created at the last summit in vilnius, we have a program of enhanced opportunities, there is an exchange of intelligence data , there is cooperation, actually practical, that's ramstein, if it fixes everything, i think that, well... the next step would be an invitation, and the very, well, the very announcement of the invitation, still does not completely solve the matter, because it still takes some time to... adapt some legislative things there maybe with the fact that the whole procedure went through all this bureaucracy and in nato itself, but i don’t know, maybe some formula will still be proposed, in particular, one of the american experts, a former employee of the state department, said that it is necessary to build such a strong bridge that would not from paper, and... from metal, that is, that it would be invalid, and that it should not be long, but short in plan, it is about ukraine's path to nato, well, it seems to me that, let's say, the invitation could be abou

but what we did do is we created a new nato ukraine council where ukraine comes in and sits as an equal around the table and is able to share first-hand impressions of insights from the war. we can hear what the requirements are but we can also talk about of right of other subjects. we that meetings of the navy ukraine council on the tax on critical infrastructure. we've talked to them about cyber attacks and looked for ways to provide additional assistance. but we did another important thing last year, and that was to lift map. the membership action plan that many new members have gone through which can be a bit of a lengthy process. we removed that entirely and that said you will not have a membership action plan. you will proceed towards a session with the time is right. so your question is, well, what are you going to do this summer on top of what you already did last summer if membership is on the table? and there we will have concrete deliverable for ukraine. i can't get into the full details on that at this juncture, but we are on a way to get them on what we're calling a bridge
