Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko is planning to attend a NATO summit due to be held in the Polish capital of Warsaw, at the beginning of July.

"I am grateful to our Polish partners for their efforts to make Ukraine one of the leading topics on the summit's agenda. Also, the NATO-Ukraine commission will meet at a high level, and there will be an intensive schedule of bilateral and multilateral meetings," he said at a press conference in Kyiv on Friday.

The Ukrainian delegation is not going there "empty-handed," he said.

"We have adopted a strategic defense bulletin [a defense road map], and these are the commitments that we have undertaken in cooperation with NATO, and I can say now that the new NATO commander in Europe is very pleased with this cooperation ... it is the president who is in charge of the defense sector and I can assure you: reforms there have been proceeding normally," he said.
