BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Ukraine could still become a NATO member in the future if it fulfils all conditions, Swedish Defence Minister Pal Jonson said on Thursday.

"I don't foresee the NATO membership as such being off the table for Ukraine," Jonson said before a meeting of defence ministers of the NATO alliance in Brussels.
