Russia, like no other country, does not and will not have the right to veto our choice to join NATO. This was stated by the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Andriy Sybiga during the Question Hour to the Government in the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine.
He emphasized that Ukraine does not accept any restrictions on Ukraine's sovereignty, our domestic and foreign policies, in particular, regarding the choice of unions and alliances to which we seek to join.
"Yes, we may not have a consensus on the country's NATO membership right now, but we will continue to actively work towards achieving it. However, Russia, like no other country, does not and will not have the right to veto our choice," — emphasized Sibiga.
The minister emphasized that Ukraine is ready to unconditionally cease fire:
"Russia is not ready and seeks war. Ukraine will not go for the so-called peace at any price. The country's principled positions on the conditions of peace remain clear and unchanged. Firstly, we will not recognize any temporarily occupied territories as Russian. Secondly, we will not agree to any restrictions on the structure of the number and other characteristics of the Defense Forces of Ukraine, restrictions on the defense industry, military assistance from allies, or the presence of their contingents on our territory."
