Nato members could defend Ukraine under founding treaty’s Article 5 – Italy

11 Marzo 2025

(Adnkronos) – Nato members could come to Ukraine’s aid under the principle of collective defence enshrined in Article 5 of the military alliance’s founding charter, Italy’s foreign minister Antonio Tajani stated on Tuesday. 

“Article 5, which says that in the event of aggression against a Nato country, the other countries intervene to defend it, could also be applied to Ukraine – a country that is unlikely to be a Nato member any time soon,” Tajani said. 

“But Ukraine’s security would be guaranteed by this treaty,” he added. 

Tajani was speaking at Let EXPO – Italy’ main transport, logistics and business services trade fair taking place in Verona.
