"Yes. We are moving towards NATO membership, ”he said, answering the corresponding question.
He also said that Kiev is not abandoning the “Membership Action Plan of NATO” (MAP).
At the same time, the Ukrainian authorities, according to him, “refuse rhetoric”, which harmed the promotion of the MAP.
Pristayko added that when the Ukrainian authorities apply the necessary number of standards, Kiev will become "mutually compatible with NATO."
Pristayko also said that Kiev will not lift the blockade of Donbass until it regains control of the enterprises located in this territory.
