Sensible decision. Ukraine spared her people NATO's mafia-like extortion of troops for Obama's occupation of Afghanistan and Iraq.

Perfect absolutely perfect Ukraine will not be joining NATO, finally at long last a country that has decided to turn it's back to NATO this is great news for Ukrainian and Russian relations now finally real stability can now officially thrive in the Post-Soviet space creating mutual benefits between Ukraine and Russia. Ukraine is now moving speedily along with it's all new direction on unbiased and non-military alliances because Ukraine simply wishes to restart all over again and such as Restart it's economy,it's foreign relation's,and it's debt deficit among other ailments that Ukraine has had for too long due to the previous stagnating politics. But now Ukraine want's to get it's own house in order before they can start negotiating international treaties and other major geopolitical stances. This is a great move by Ukraine to say NO! to NATO because this would seriously hurt Ukraine to join NATO as this is the last thing on their minds to join a political group, I personally do believe that Ukraine will become more prosperous without joining NATO and pretty much dust NATO under the rug for good. So finally Ukraine has joined a considerably small group of countries that has stood up to NATO aggression and said NO! this takes an awful lot of guts and determination to do this but Ukraine will inevitably get greater benefits on no doing so, so good luck Ukraine show the world that NOT! joining NATO is probably the best thing that any country can ever do.
