US State Department: Washington Security Assurance Response Won't Address NATO Issues
38
The topic of Ukraine's entry into the North Atlantic Alliance concerns all its members. Therefore, Washington's written response on security assurances will not address issues relating to NATO as a whole.
This was announced at a briefing by US State Department spokesman Ned Price.
He said that the United States' response to Russian security proposals would not contain Washington's position on Ukraine's prospects for joining NATO. The US State Department believes that America cannot be responsible for the entire alliance.
At the same time, Ned Price recalled that the United States opposes the revision of NATO's open door principle.
It is expected that Moscow will receive a written American response this week. A State Department spokesman promised that as soon as this happened, journalists would be immediately notified. He also assured those present that there would be nothing unexpected in the document, because Washington intends to coordinate all its proposals in advance with allies, including Ukraine.
Earlier it was reported that the US State Department, after consulting with the Ukrainian authorities, decided to add the opinion of Kiev to its response.
As The Washington Post reported, US officials asked Moscow not to make public the contents of the American response.
