Ukrainian course for NATO membership.
Анотація
One of the main priorities of Ukrainian foreign policy today is to deepen cooperation with NATO in order to fulfil the criteria required for membership in this organization. The issue of a possible full membership of Ukraine in NATO is widely discussed. Some experts believe that this prospect is "very vague", but most of them still agree about the urgent need for Ukraine’s accession to NATO and consider this opportunity. After achieving NATO membership, Ukraine will receive access to political decisions that do affect a wide range of European processes, and defence within NATO will be much cheaper than our own full defence.Посилання
