"This Law is a significant step on the way to European and Euro-Atlantic integration. This is our strategic course and I intend to consolidate it in the Constitution in the near future", - says President Petro Poroshenko. The President congratulated Ukrainians on the adoption of the Law "On National Security of Ukraine".
"For four years, practically from zero, we have created one of the best armies in Europe, which firmly holds the defense in the East of Ukraine and the entire continent",said Petro Poroshenko.
"And now the new Law on National Security introduces advanced world standards to our army, the activities of special services and law-enforcement bodies of Ukraine. It strengthens our military and defense potential, strengthens civilian control over the army, transparency of the defense budget", the President emphasized.
The Head of State stressed that the law creates new opportunities for military-technical cooperation with our allies, first of all the United States of America. "This also applies to the supply of modern defense weapons, and not only Javelin", he added.
