A high-ranking NATO official has apologized after publicly suggesting that Ukraine could give up some of its land as part of a way to end the war with Russia. Stian Jenssen, the chief of staff to the NATO secretary general, made his initial comment during a recent forum in Norway. He said, “I think that a solution could be for Ukraine to give up territory and get NATO membership in return.” Officials in Ukraine blasted Jenssen’s comment.
