Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Thursday it was 'time' for Kyiv to be invited into NATO.

"Now, when the majority of people in NATO countries and the majority of Ukrainians support the entry of our country into the alliance, it is time to take the appropriate decision," Zelensky said at a press conference with visiting NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg.

Zelensky also asked Stoltenberg to help Kyiv "overcome the reluctance" of some member states on providing long-range weapons to Kyiv to counter Russia's invasion.

"I addressed the Secretary General with a request to help us overcome the reluctance of our partners regarding the delivery of certain weapons, namely long-range, modern aviation, artillery, armoured vehicles," Zelensky said at the press conference.
