Polish President: NATO’s doors should be open to Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova
Andrzej Duda stated in an interview with PAP (Polish Press Agency) that NATO should leave the doors open for Georgia, Ukraine and Moldova.
According to him, the Alliance should cooperate closely with Sweden and Finland, because these states are already strategically linked with NATO and the cooperation with them should be enhanced.
"In my view, the Alliance should primarily maintain an open-door policy. We cannot say that the North Atlantic Alliance is already full and that no more states can join it," Duda said.
At the same time, according to the Polish President, he is happy that Montenegro has joined NATO because it shows that the open-door policy continues.
"I also believe that NATO should keep and leave the doors open for Ukraine, Georgia and Moldova. These processes can be long, but closing NATO’s doors would be a very bad signal," Duda stated.
As was reported, President Petro Poroshenko expects that the prospects of Ukraine’s NATO membership will be confirmed at the Summit in Warsaw.
