The Ukrainian World Congress (UWC) welcomes the signing by President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko of the Law of Ukraine “On Amendments to Certain Laws of Ukraine on the Foreign Policy of Ukraine”, which identifies membership in NATO as a national interest priority.
The law, adopted by the Parliament of Ukraine on 8 June 2017, focuses on the integration of Ukraine into the Euro-Atlantic security sphere and will serve to strengthen the reform effort, including in the security and defence sectors, with the goal of fulfilling all criteria for membership in NATO.
“The Ukrainian World Congress supports Ukraine’s decision to seek NATO membership which will significantly contribute to peace and stability in the world,” stated UWC President Eugene Czolij.
