Read the full assessment
This market resolves to Yes if Ukraine publicly pledges or agrees not to join NATO by December 31, 2026. Participants should note that the rules define qualifying agreements very broadly: any temporary commitment (such as a 10-year pause) or non-finalized precondition to a broader peace framework qualifies, regardless of whether it ever takes formal effect. While official Ukrainian announcements serve as the primary source, the resolution can also rely on an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting, which leaves room for deciders to interpret whether reported diplomatic concessions meet the criteria before a formal treaty is ratified.

Resolution rules
This market will resolve to "Yes" if Ukraine publicly agrees not to join NATO by December 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 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 the Ukraine, however an overwhelming consensus of credible reporting confirming a qualifying agreement has been reached will also count.
