Georgia, Tbilisi, 11 Dec / Trend corr. N.Kirtskhalia/ The entry of Georgia and Ukraine into NATO is overly politicized, Speaker of the Georgian Parliament David Bakradze said in Washington speaking at the National Democratic Institute of USA.

"This simple technical matter, which must provide a mechanism of country's joining the alliance, has been overly politicized entailing unnecessary tension," said Bakradze.

He voiced his satisfaction that Georgia gained the annual NATO accession program, which will be implemented within the NATO-Georgia Commission that was established in September 2007.

"This gives rise to hope that the Georgia's accession to the alliance is an irreversible and progressive process," he said.
