U.S. Senator McCain: Belarus deserves chance to join NATO and EU
It may happen if the country follows the route of democratization.
Belarus, Moldova and Ukraine deserve a chance to join NATO and the EU if they correspond to the organizations’ criteria, American Senator John McCain claimed during a discussion at the international global security conference in Bratislava.
Political analyst Robin Shepherd asked McCain whether he regretted the fact that Russia’s western neighbours had not got the chance 10 or 5 years ago and whether the chance was gone forever, Radio Liberty reports.
The democratisation of the country is the main term for NATO membership, McCain replied.
