According to an anonymous European diplomat, if Democratic candidate Kamala Harris wins the US presidential election, it can be assumed that Joe Biden will start working on an invitation to Ukraine during the transition period.

The implication though... what if she doesn't?

I guess they can't invite Ukraine in the transition period if Trump would shoot it down? But why can't they just rush the ratification?

because it surely won't accept it before Donald Trump gets sworn in

anyone against it can simply delay and "raise concerns" for a few months

it’s possible that if they rushed it through now, it’d give trump ammo for leaving nato entirely
