The UK supports NATO's 2008 Bucharest Summit declaration that Georgia and Ukraine will become members of NATO, and continues to support NATO's Open Door policy, under which all European democracies are entitled to pursue NATO membership. Ukraine must now achieve the standards expected of an ally and be able to undertake the commitments and obligations of membership.
