U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that Ukraine will eventually join NATO as support for Kyiv from NATO member states remains "rock solid."

He told this to journalists in Brussels on Thursday, Ukrinform reports, citing Reuters.

"Ukraine will become a member of NATO. Our purpose at the summit is to help build a bridge to that membership," Blinken said.
