The US senator said it is “unreasonable” to demand NATO members or nuclear weapons for Kiev

Security guarantees for Ukraine cannot include NATO membership or nuclear weapons, US Senator Lindsey Graham said in response to an op-ed by Kiev’s former top military commander Valery Zaluzhny.

In an opinion piece published in The Telegraph on Saturday, Zaluzhny, now serving as Ukraine’s ambassador to the UK, wrote that “effective security guarantees” could include NATO membership, stationing nuclear weapons on Ukrainian territory, or “a large allied military contingent capable of confronting Russia.”

In a post on X the following day, Graham wrote that the arrangements described by Zaluzhny were “far beyond what is possible.”
