Zam. the head of the presidential administration of Ukraine Valeriy Chaly said on Thursday that he believes the non-Aligned status is invalid for Ukraine.

The non-aligned status of Ukraine established by law.

in the process of international conference " Challenges to European security architecture: the Ukrainian context " in Kiev Chaly said that he considers the consolidation of the non-aligned status of Ukraine " wrong choice " for the state." A few years ago, and at present the situation clearly shows that it was the wrong choice for Ukraine. In my vision, a classic neutral status is completely unacceptable for Ukraine, " said roan.

in his vision, the most appropriate for Ukraine At this time will be a combination of European integration and active participation of Kiev in the European security system and the development of deeper cooperation between Ukraine and NATO.

Attitude to the question Of the accession of Ukraine to NATO reflects the contradictions between its Eastern and Western regions: the former tend to Russia and take this opportunity as a threat, and the latter is considered the chance to integrate into evroatlanticheskoe space. The third head of Ukraine Viktor Yushchenko (2005-2010) took a course on the country's accession to NATO, but his successor Viktor Yanukovych (2010-2014) has achieved a legislative recognition of the non-aligned status of Ukraine.
