The Holos Ukrainy newspaper published the coalition agreement according to which the Stability and Reforms Coalition pledged to officially fix Ukraine´s nonaligned status.

"It is important to legally fix Ukraine´s nonaligned status, which would denote its nonparticipation in military and political alliances of other nations," reported the paper.

Nevertheless, the coalition declared its intention of continuing constructive cooperation with NATO in issues of mutual interest.

Moreover, the coalition has intentions of working on economic integration with post-Soviet republics based on the national interests of Ukraine and the principles of the WTO.

Simultaneously, Ukrainski Novyny reported, the coalition pledges to provide implementation of the US-Ukraine Charter on Strategic Partnership and pursue a balanced policy guaranteeing extended trade and economic cooperation with the G20, Central Asia, Latin America and Africa.
