/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The U.S. is pushing hard for Ukraine and Georgia
to gain entry to NATO.

"Supporting the NATO Membership Action Plans for Ukraine and
Georgia, the United States will keep up close cooperation with the
two countries," said Daniel Fried, Assistant Secretary of State for
European and Eurasian Affairs.

"During the Bucharest summit NATO leaders unanimously announced
that Georgia and Ukraine will be members of the Alliance. It was a
strategically significant decision which will allow to avoid dividing
lines in Europe," he said, 1news.az reports.
