Reforming the military and security sphere in accordance with NATO standards is a priority for Ukraine. This was stated by the Chairperson of The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine during the meeting with NATO Deputy Secretary General Mircea Geoana in Brussels.

"Among the priorities is Ukraine's transition to NATO standards, norms and principles. We have made significant progress in various areas of Euro-Atlantic reforms, in particular, we have adopted important legislation and guidelines in the field of security and defense," said Dmytro Razumkov. He noted that the laws of Ukraine "On Defense Procurement" and "On Intelligence", as well as the National Security Strategy of Ukraine were adopted.

"Ukraine will continue to reform its military and security sphere in accordance with NATO standards," the Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada said.

According to him, the recognition of Ukraine as a NATO Partner with Enhanced Opportunities is an important stage in the realization of our country's Euro-Atlantic aspirations. He thanked the allies for this decision.

The Speaker of the Ukrainian Parliament stressed that the NATO Membership Action Plan is a logical and non-alternative step for Ukraine on the path to Euro-Atlantic integration. "We would like to see the MAP for Ukraine in the near future and hope to form the necessary consensus among the allies on this issue," he said.

Dmytro Razumkov noted that Ukraine welcomes the intention of the Allies to reaffirm the Alliance's "open door" policy during the next NATO Summit.

The Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada also stressed that the joint priority and task of the Alliance and Ukraine is to resume the meetings of the NATO-Ukraine Commission at a high level.

He also stressed that the parliamentary dimension remains an important component of the political dialogue with NATO and its allies. "We are grateful to the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, as well as to the Allies, for agreeing to postpone the regular spring session of the NATO PA at the end of May 2022 in Kyiv at the suggestion of Ukraine. I hope that the Coronavirus will not hinder us in this," said the Chairperson of the Verkhovna Rada.

According to Dmytro Razumkov, the priority for the Ukrainian Parliament is to strengthen cooperation between Ukraine and NATO, aimed at maintaining security in the Euro-Atlantic area.

"Ukraine highly appreciates the constant solidarity of allies with our country and NATO's decisive position on Russia's ongoing aggression in Crimea and Donbas," Dmytro Razumkov said.

The Speaker thanked the Allies for their support for domestic reforms in Ukraine, as well as for their interest in and support for Ukraine's initiative to establish the "Crimean Platform", the ultimate goal of which is the deoccupation of Crimea.
