Litvin: Ukraine will not be a member of either NATO or the EU - Russia is more valuable to them
Kyiv, September 06 (PolitNavigator, Yuriy Kovalchuk) – Russia is much closer to global players than Ukraine, so it is unlikely to be accepted into NATO or the EU, Verkhovna Rada deputy Vladimir Lytvyn said on the Rada TV channel.

“What is happening in Ukraine is a clear signal that Ukraine in the tangible future will never be a member of NATO or the European Union. Because, despite any disagreements with Russia, the Russian Federation will always be much closer to these global players than Ukraine. This once again confirms that you need to rely only on your own strength.
True, solidarity was expressed for Ukraine, and Obama made tough statements in Tallinn. This means a lot, but at the same time Putin’s peace proposals were voiced, which confused the cards of the summit participants, who, in the end, did not achieve solidarity regarding assistance to Ukraine,” says Lytvyn.
As PolitNavigator reported, the American publication Time previously wrote that NATO is too afraid of the Russian threat to allow Ukraine to join the Alliance.
