Biden told reporters Monday afternoon that Ukraine still has to clean up corruption and meet other criteria before entering NATO.

“The fact is that they still need to fight corruption,” he said after a NATO summit. “In the meantime, we will do all we can to put Ukraine in a position to be able to resist Russian aggression… to maintain their physical security,” Biden said.
