Ukraine insists on holding NATO PA meeting in Kyiv - Gerashchenko

The Ukrainian parliamentary delegation has put forward an offer to hold a meeting of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly (PA) in Kyiv and will insist on it, the First Deputy Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's representative in the humanitarian subgroup of the Trilateral Contact Group Iryna Gerashchenko has stated.

"The visit of the Ukrainian parliamentary delegation to the NATO headquarters and the Secretariat of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly is coming to end. We've offered holding a PA meeting on Ukraine. The schedule of these important inter-parliamentary meetings has been formed for a few years in advance, but the Ukrainian delegation will stand for holding a meeting of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly in Kyiv in the next years," Gerashchenko wrote on her Facebook page.

According to her, Ukrainian MPs also offered to hold public parliamentary hearings on the potential of development of cooperation between NATO and Ukraine in March 2017.

"The Ukraine-NATO Inter-parliamentary Council will be held in March, and this is a good reason for talking in detail about the potential of our relations," she added.
