The next step for Ukraine, after repealing its non-aligned status, is to ask NATO to grant Ukraine a Membership Action Plan (MAP), Batkivschyna MP Hryhoriy Nemyria said.
"A well-time and high-quality appeal to NATO over granting MAP should be prepared," he said at a briefing in Kyiv on Tuesday.
The lawmaker went on to say that revoking Ukraine’s non-aligned status must be a first step in the step-by-step integration of Ukraine into NATO. "The next decision is by the executive. A quality annual Ukraine-NATO plan must be adopted. Ukraine-NATO intensified dialogue should be set," Nemyria said.
As earlier reported the Verkhovna Rada has adopted amendments to the laws regulating the country's domestic and foreign policy, as well as national security principles, repealing Ukraine's non-aligned status.
The note explains that the decision to revoke non-aligned status is a result of Russian aggression towards Ukraine.
