Visiting U.S. President George W. Bush vowed Tuesday to support Ukraine's bid to join NATO Membership Action Plan (MAP) at the alliance's April 2-4 summit in Bucharest, Romania.
"Ukraine seeks to deepen its cooperation with the NATO alliance
through a membership action plan. Ukraine has made a bold decision
and the United State strongly supports your request," Bush told a joint press conference with Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko.
He said Russia will not have a veto on what happens in Bucharest.
Yushchenko said Ukraine's bid to join MAP and NATO answers for the country's national interests.
"This is not a policy against someone. We just care about our national interest", he stressed.
