NATO-Ukraine cooperation will continue within the framework of the NATO-Ukraine Commission, the Alliance's Secretary General Anders Fogh Rasmussen said.
"Our cooperation with Ukraine will continue within the existing framework and then it's for Ukraine to decide how this relationship and partnership should develop in the coming years," Rasmussen told a news conference in Brussels, RIA Novosti reported.
"The Bucharest decision still stands. We have no intention to change that decision... our door remains open," he added.
His statement comes after the Ukrainian parliament passed last week in the first reading a bill that stipulates Ukraine's status of non-alignment with international blocs.
Shortly after the bill was passed, President Viktor Yanukovych's made a televised address to the nation, in which he reiterated the country's non-bloc policy.
