Ukraine asks for NATO help to confront Russia in Azov
Kyiv hopes to unblock the Ukraine-NATO commission meeting during negotiations with Hungary, in order, in particular, to obtain assistance from the alliance in its confrontation with Russia in the Sea of Azov, where the situation has escalated following the seizure of the Nord seiner by Ukrainians.
The Russian Nezavisimaya Gazeta writes about this, talking about the Ukrainian leadership’s views on the North Atlantic Alliance summit, which is scheduled to take place in July.

“Negotiations on the language norm of the law on education are planned for June 22 in the Transcarpathian region of Ukraine... On the eve of the negotiations, Ukrainian officials held a number of meetings with representatives of the Hungarian national minority. Kiev expects that the conflict situation will be resolved by the end of this week.
In this case, the way will be open for the participation of the Ukrainian delegation led by President Poroshenko in the negotiations within the framework of the NATO summit. Political scientists note that for Ukraine this is an opportunity to negotiate military assistance from NATO member countries (especially given the new threats in the Sea of Azov),” the publication says.
Today, the Verkhovna Rada plans to adopt the law “On National Security,” which will transfer all power structures of Ukraine to the standards of the alliance. MPs are rushing to vote for the NATO summit.
