Rutte emphasized that NATO's involvement in peace negotiations will focus specifically on the aspects related to the alliance, stating, “Obviously, when it comes to NATO elements of a deal to end the war against Ukraine, it will be dealt separately, and it will obviously include NATO.”
The NATO chief further expressed support for the United States’ role in putting forward proposals for peace.
“We need to start somewhere. We need to have proposals on the table,” he noted.
