NATO countries should accept Ukraine in their ranks, guided by the experience of the Cold War, when, despite the objections of the Soviet Union, Germany became a member of The North Atlantic Alliance.
This statement was made by the former president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko, in an interview with the Times of Malta.
„We must learn from this experience and repeat it now”, the politician expressed his opinion.
According to him, the newly elected US President Donald Trump should first of all invite Ukraine to NATO. Such a step, according to Poroshenko, will become an important condition for ending the conflict and freezing hostilities.
