German government spokesman Steffen Hebestreit said that the admission of Ukraine to NATO is not on the agenda. He announced this at a briefing, RIA Novosti reports.
He stressed that countries have the opportunity to decide on their own which unions they want to join.
“The Federal Chancellor answered a similar question ten days ago that at the moment the adoption of Ukraine is not on the agenda,” he added.
Earlier, Federation Council Senator Sergei Tsekov said that Ukraine could encroach on Crimea if it joins NATO.
In his opinion, such a possibility cannot be ruled out if Ukraine continues to be militarized and accepted into NATO. Meanwhile, the scenario of an “attack” on Crimea seems unlikely, since the peninsula will be protected by the entire local population and Russia as a whole, but at the same time, you need to be ready for anything, Tsekov noted.
