by the way, it’s not that much, and the pdc opens the nuclear umbrella, or does it?can we say that we can feel a little better, a little safer from the russian nuclear threat viewers, this is the purpose of the introduction, and the main purpose of this introduction is the fifth article of the washington treaty on joint defense and if a nuclear strike is carried out, if you are asking about it by which of the nato countries, then other countries can consider the question to answer ukraine is so confident about this strike that it has received the pdc, this does not mean that it is under the nuclear umbrella . not yet ready to fight for ukraine for its territorial integrity and independence. and in the case of ukraine joining nato, we will have to fight. well, if the war does not end, this is the main reason that is currently inhibiting our full-fledged membership is the psychological unpreparedness of western societies to fight on the side of ukraine, we now thank volodymyr gorbacha, a political analyst of the euro-atlantic cooperation institute. thank you, mr. volod

for membership, and our logic is that we implement annual national programs that correspond to the pdct, they were officially evaluated by nato, and therefore we can to skip the stage of self-determination and definitely join nato on the basis of the progress that we already have, well, ukraine submitted an application to nato in response to the legally null attempts to refenax its territory, as explained in in particular, the ministry of foreign affairs of ukraine notes whether the illegal attempt to annex ukrainian territories is part of russia's war of aggression against ukraine and the deliberate destruction of the un charter. the ministry of foreign affairs added that exercising its legal right to self-defense, ukraine will continue the de-occupation of lands , restoring its territorial integrity within internationally recognized borders, as arranged by the russian leadership . a performance with the signing of dubious papers with the self-proclaimed leaders of the occupation administrations in donetsk luhansk zaporizhia and kherson regions of ukraine about their alleged accession

although we must also fulfill it . there is no plan of action regarding the membership of the so -called pdcwe cannot, it seems to me, be equal to finland and sweden with their democratic norms , not military, but political. such a road makes this path not so long, but shorter and more achievable. close your eyes and simply make a political decision that it is necessary and such a decision was made and eyes were closed and uh, no standards were discussed and no what uh, military seats uh, of these new members of the alliance were discussed and not about which these are the same european standards that you asked mr. mykola it was not a question, it was a question of what should be done because it is necessary, and i think that in our arguments, in the current discussions with the leading members of the alliance, we should talk about such examples and refer to them, so we are now we are inferior to sweden and finland in the standards that they dream of in the ato. well, i'm sorry , those countries that we are talking about, in particular, the balkan region, were inferior in the same way. well,

zhovkva that it is without a passport but i think that it will not be possible to do without the pdc because the pdc concerns precisely these reforms in order to bring ukraine to the standards related to the judicial reform, i.e. the fight against corruption, the functioning of democratic institutions, etc. the reforms of ukraine will have to be done anyway, at least after, let's say, ukraine will be granted membership of the alliance in some advance in some format, or will it be a full-fledged procedure started as a team by sweden it's just that finland and sweden were more prepared in these matters, and for them it was just a matter of taking a fragment and inserting it into the mosaic of the alliance with ukraine, there is no such thing, although in fact, in the military part, ukraine is making great progress in approaching the state of integration into the alliance, and this is undeniable and here is a question of context again, if it was 2008 or would it be 2019? is the 15th - this is the same story, it seemed to me from the 19th year, or if russia goes for the annexation of the

, they were officially evaluated by nato, and therefore we can skip the pdc stage and definitely joinress that we already have now that is, it is just a lack of planning regarding membership , it will be omitted by default, of course, well , how will it happen in practice now, because there was a statement from the president, now this statement about our accession is needed somehow well, it is an official paper with its seals and it must be handed over somewhere, somewhere this paper must be registered somewhere, i.e. how will it happen, now everything is formalized and it will reach the headquarters and allies through official channels in the near future, but it is important that we are the speakers in this address of the president the prime minister justifies the submission of the application for membership right now, the urgency and in the situation and extraordinary events of a global scale that require extraordinary decisions, we refer to the statements of the leadership of the russian federation , president putin, about the annexation of the territory, about the threat of milita

provoke russia, there will be an escalation, there will be a war, let's be honest, we do not have a pdcat you were so afraid of, so afraid of irritating russia, but it got irritated without you and without membership and without promises, so let's be honest, russia will find any reason to correct its aggression, and for this nato does not need to hide in difficult times, it is necessary to make difficult decisions and show its political will and not be afraid of your work in brussels, because the mission of ukraine in nato is constantly close to the headquarters of these organizations, how often do you have them now in general consultations are also held and you are invited to various events that take place across the street, so to speak, you know really as soon as the war began , we became, of course, the center of attention and focus, and of such an intensity of contacts, of course there was no war, and if when i started my mission at many moments it frankly offended me because it interfered with our work. since we were isolated from this club for thirty, in principle now i can say th

new application for accession to nato, and i thought to myself, maybe they will take us without the pdc example, sweden and finland . everyone has a chance, he says countries obviously have a chance, because the doors of nato are open to everyone, but in your opinion, what are our chances of becoming a nato member in the short and medium term? i think that ukraine will become a nato member sooner than a member of the european union, and the fact that the ukrainian side is without one hundred percent coordination with our western partners, this decision was made by the e-e has an indisputable strategic importance, despite the fact that such an immediate reaction to the ukrainian application, as there was a lack of political finland in sweden, will not that is, we will now have more discussions, now er, some members of er nato will feel very uncomfortable, including one of our best and actually strategic partners, but the situation requires non-standard solutions er. it requires an accelerated pace not just for the accession of ukraine to those alliances that are important for security in

our logic is that we implement annual national programs that correspond to the pdc format, they werefficially evaluated by nato and that's why we can skip the stage of development and definitely join nato on the basis of the progress that we already have. that is, it's just without an action plan for membership , it will be omitted by default, of course, good and now how will it happen in practice, because there was a statement from the president. and now, this statement about our accession must be made somehow. well, this is an official paper with its seals, and this paper must be handed over somewhere, somewhere. it must be registered somewhere, that is, how will it happen formally now? everything is formalized and it will reach the headquarters and an ally in the near future through official channels, but it is important that we a-a in this address of the president, the speakers , the prime minister a-a justify the application for membership right now, the urgency and in the situation and extraordinary events of a global scale that require extraordinary decisions, we refer to the

appeal to the alliance to open the door to membership in ukraine and grant membership to the so-called pdc e-e in many people think about what if b the alliance at that time was more determined er than then, it is possible that we avoided many terrible trials that befell ukraine and other nations, therefore the decision itself is very correct, this decision er refreshed the situation and to some extent it created new reality uh-huh it is clear that, for such decisions, in principle , it is customary to use such conventional methods, that is, it is necessary to consult with allied members of the alliance on the eve of making such decisions, and in order to first of all ensure the realistic implementation of this goal, but we and we are in unconventional conditions and the emergence of this new political reality is, so to speak, the fact with which ukraine is now officially addressing its allies that it wants to become a member what they know is that ukraine is ultimately considered a candidate for membership, but what we are interested in is to implement, that is, to enter the open door tha
