Is Ukraine ready for NATO membership?
Original language description
Responding to the violation of Ukraine’s territorial integrity by Russia, the Ukrainian political leadership has declared its intent to join NATO. This paper analyses whether Ukraine is prepared for NATO membership. The Study on NATO Enlargement defines several key criteria for new members. Four are essential: 1) the establishment of a consolidated democratic political system, including democratic civil-military relations, 2) the ability of the candidate’s armed forces to meet Alliance obligations to provide security for the international community, 3) the settling of territorial disputes with neighbours, and 4) public support for NATO membership. Evaluated on these criteria, Ukraine is not ready for NATO membership. Ukraine is not a consolidated democracy: ambiguously distributed competencies between the executive and legislative branches allow political actors to make controversial decisions and take steps that favour short-term, many times personal, interests over long-term national goals.
