“This is Poroshenko’s personal opinion, now the elections, we understand. Pyotr Alekseevich PR is either on anti-Russian rhetoric or on NATO and the EU. But you should pay attention to the statements of representatives of the alliance. They say that Ukraine can really be in NATO. But only after raising the economy, resolving issues with the army, will hold a preparatory period. That is, maybe she can, but only after she does everything. But this requires money and time, in fact, it is necessary to rebuild the whole army, ”the expert believes.

According to him, in Ukraine you can talk about NATO, but from the point of view of specialists in the near future, the country will not join the alliance.

“Anyway Poroshenko PR. But it may happen that in five years it will no longer be fashionable to talk about NATO, the world is changing. However, after the election, no matter who becomes president, such rhetoric will continue, ”Okhrimenko said.

Earlier, Poroshenko said that Ukraine’s membership in the European Union and NATO could guarantee the country’s independence and security.

According to him, achieving the criteria for membership in the blocks will improve the investment climate.
