Date for start of discussions on Ukraine's NATO membership announced

Discussions on Ukraine's NATO membership will begin in mid-October, Ukraine's Ambassador to the Alliance Natalia Galibarenko said at a briefing, reported from UNIAN.

Galibarenko said that it was an expected scenario that Ukraine would apply for membership, skipping the preparatory stage like Sweden and Finland:

"Ukraine's membership application is a reaction to dynamic changes and events. Partner countries are aware of this," she said.

According to Natalia Galibarenko, one of the first steps will be a discussion at the level of ambassadors.
