Standardization in the military sphere
The significant intencification of the processes of international cooperation and the absence of military standards to assure the activity of the Armed Forces of Ukraine crucialy slows down the process of achieving the necessary level of cooperaion in operative, material, administrative and other spheres of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with NATO member state countries.
According to the experience of conducting the events of international cooperation of the Ministry of Defence and the General Staff of Ukraine the absence of a normalized process of the activity of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff of Ukraine results in unapproved actions of different structural units, and accordingly has a negative influence upon the effectiveness of cooperation with international facilities in different spheres of activity of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The introduction of NATO military standards will form the appropriate normative base for planning the events of activity of the strucutural unts of the Ministry of Defense and the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The determination of the main definitions of the military system will promote the achievement of a necessary level of interconnection between types of Armed Forces of Ukraine, and other military formations (The Ministry of internal affairs, the security service of Ukraine, the Ministry of Emergency situations, the armed forces of other countries in the process of preparing and conducting operations, and also the promotion of harmonizing and unifying the military terminology with the NATO and EU countries).
