According to Oleksandr Moroz's "deep conviction," "a European choice is necessary for Ukraine." He stated this to journalists on Friday at a press conference in Lutsk. However, in Oleksandr Moroz's opinion, Ukraine's European choice is needed "not for a formal choice of development direction, but in order to create European standards of living and state governance in Ukraine." Then, in his opinion, Ukraine will be a state with which "both the European Community and Russia will find it interesting to communicate." "lt is easy to renounce what poses no threat," — this is how Oleksandr Moroz commented on the recent change to Ukraine's Military Doctrine regarding the exclusion from it of Ukraine's aspiration to integrate into the EU and NATO. "This is a vivid demonstration of the multi-vector nature of our President's policy, which can be compared perhaps only to the situation of a cow on ice: it constantly risks damaging its 'something.' Damaging the President's 'something' would be even more frightening," stated Oleksandr Moroz. Oleksandr Moroz also commented on the statements made by Leonid Kuchma regarding the vectors of Ukraine's foreign policy: "he arrived in Poland — he's already in NATO, he reached Lviv — he's in the European Union, he got to Dnipropetrovsk — he's in the Tashkent Pact, he went even further — he's already ready to sign the SES."
