303 deputy VRU voted to abolish the non-aligned status of Ukraine
The draft law on Ukraine’s readiness to join one or another military bloc (of course, which one) was officially initiated by President Petro Poroshenko. Although before Poroshenko, the most radical representatives of the Ukrainian political "elites" stated that non-aligned status "hinders the development of Ukraine" and "strikes at the security of the country."
The deputies greeted the decision with applause. Applauds the decision and Petro Poroshenko:
European and Euro-Atlantic integration is the only way for Ukraine.
Poroshenko is clearly wishful thinking, because one thing is the cancellation of non-aligned status, and it is quite another to join NATO. In the alliance itself, they are not very enthusiastic about the decision of the Ukrainian deputies 303.
Moreover, in Ukraine itself, judging by recent polls, at least 44% of residents are against joining NATO.
