Klimkin: Ukraine has four years to comply with NATO standards

Ukraine will try to bring its defence and security sector into line with the NATO standards till 2020.

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Pavlo Klimkin said this at the XII meeting of heads of Ukrainian diplomatic missions, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.

"Our ambitious goal is to bring our defence and security sector into line with the NATO standards till 2020, for four years," Klimkin said.

He noted that only Ukraine itself could settle the security issue and the North-Atlantic Alliance provided Ukraine with assistance in this issue. "So we have to coordinate all the efforts to bring our army into line with the NATO standards," the Minister stressed.
