This market will resolve to "Yes" if Ukraine publicly agrees not to join NATO by August 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. An official pledge by Ukraine not to join NATO will qualify for a “Yes” resolution whether as a unilateral announcement or part of an agreement with the Russian Federation. Any agreement or pledge made before the resolution date of this market will qualify, regardless of if/when the agreement goes into effect. An agreement by Ukraine not to join NATO for any amount of time will count (e.g. If Ukraine agrees not to join NATO for 10 years this will qualify). An agreement by Ukraine not to join NATO as a precondition of a more comprehensive peace process or deal will qualify, even if the agreement is not finalized or part of a formalized peace deal. The September 8, 1995 “Agreed Basic Principles” between Bosnia and Yugoslavia which recognized the borders and sovereignty of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and was later formalized through the Dayton Peace Agreement is an example of a qualifying agreement. The primary resolution source for this market will be an official announcement by Ukraine, however an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting confirming a qualifying agreement has been reached will also count.Ukraine’s constitutional commitment to NATO membership, reaffirmed by Kyiv’s leadership and supported at the July 2026 Ankara summit through €70 billion in pledged aid and recognition of Ukraine as a security contributor, drives the near-certain trader view that no formal agreement to forgo accession will occur by August 31. NATO allies continue to describe the country’s path as irreversible when conditions are met, while recent statements from Ukrainian officials show no shift toward neutrality pledges. With only days remaining before the deadline, the absence of active negotiations or announcements on this specific concession reinforces the consensus. Late diplomatic breakthroughs in peace talks or sudden policy reversals by Kyiv could theoretically alter the outcome, though no such developments are currently underway.
