NATO Parliamentary Assembly to be held in Ukraine in 2020
The spring 2020 session of the NATO Parliamentary Assembly (PA) will be held in Kyiv.
This was reported by Verkhovna Rada member Irina Friz, who heads the Ukrainian delegation to the NATO PA.
“This is important and very good news! The Permanent Committee of the NATO PA approved the application of Ukraine for the spring session of the NATO PA in Kyiv. We have been granted this right in 2020,” she wrote on Facebook on Sunday evening.
In her opinion, this is “not only a manifestation of Ukraine’s support for the NATO PA, it is evidence of our close cooperation.”
The NATO Parliamentary Assembly combines the parliaments of member countries of the North Atlantic Alliance, as well as the delegations of parliaments from a number of other countries. Ukraine is represented in the Assembly as an associate member.
The current autumn session of the NATO PA is being held in Bucharest.
