Russia cannot abandon the narrative about NATO: expert's explanation.

Ukrainian political scientist Igor Reiterovich stated that all of Russia's statements regarding Ukraine's non-affiliation with NATO are merely manipulations, as Russia itself has built this narrative and cannot abandon it. He also emphasized that countries not belonging to the North Atlantic Alliance can provide Ukraine with security guarantees, as countries like Australia and Japan do. Reiterovich pointed out that Russia has trained its citizens to be hostile towards NATO to such an extent that any attempt to abandon this narrative could lead to internal problems. He also noted that discussions about providing security guarantees from the West to Ukraine are ongoing, and the decision should be based on relationships between countries rather than on general NATO principles. In conclusion, it is worth noting that Russia continues to maintain tensions regarding NATO and the country's participation in the alliance, while political analysts emphasize the importance of diplomatic dialogue to maintain peace and security in Ukraine.
