He & nbsp; stressed that & nbsp; Moscow requires & nbsp; NATO to officially withdraw the decision on & nbsp; that Georgia & nbsp; Ukraine and & nbsp; ; the future will be able to join the & nbsp; North Atlantic Alliance. According to & nbsp; he said, Moscow's position is that & nbsp; further expansion of the organization in & nbsp; principle is impossible.
Ryabkov expressed the opinion that all NATO activities should be “rolled back to the positions that existed at the time of the signing of the Russia-NATO fundamental act.”
At the & nbsp; Summit in & nbsp; Bucharest in & nbsp; April 2008, the North Atlantic Alliance adopted a political statement that & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; Ukraine and & nbsp; Georgia will eventually become NATO members. In & nbsp; February 2019, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine approved amendments to the country's constitution, securing the country's aspirations in the & nbsp; North Atlantic Alliance. Kiev received the status of a partner of the organization with & nbsp; extended opportunities.
Earlier it was reported that & nbsp; press secretary of the President of the & nbsp; RF Dmitry Peskov called “ a matter of life and & nbsp; death '' for & nbsp; Russia, the advancement of NATO to the & nbsp; east.
