The agreement between the government of Ukraine and North Atlantic Alliance on the status of Representation of NATO in Ukraine was signed on September 22, 2015 in Kiev. Since then deputies of the Parliament couldn't be delivered and ratify the government agreement in any way. It is obvious that scandal with resignation of the Minister Abromavichus pushed deputies to active and constructive work.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Pavel Klimkin during submission of this government agreement in the Parliament declared: «This Representation will be, actually, full-fledged Embassy... The personnel of NATO will use all privileges of the Vienna convention. Through this Embassy there will be a coordination of all projects which happen in the sphere of our interaction to NATO today».

Since Ukraine is a unitary state but not uniform, NATO Embassy in Ukraine should eventually be open four of its offices across the country. Active work with regional offices of the supporters will facilitate faster psychological enculturation in the Ukrainian system of European security.

It must be remembered that the Ukrainian, who four centuries been under the political protection of the Kremlin, taught from generation to generation to look at the Roman-German and Anglo-Saxon civilization as the insidious enemy. So it will need at least two generations in order to completely get rid of the Kremlin's ideological rust.
