The document was signed on July 9, 1997.
"This is a serious political signal, as well as an opportunity for us to brief all ambassadors of the NATO member states on both achievements and challenges that we are facing today amid war and ongoing reforms in the country," she said.
Klympush-Tsintsadze says that the Charter needs to be brought in line with the real situation. "The document is based on different geopolitical realities, and it uses terminology or even [mentions] the organizations that no longer exist today," she said.
The exact date of the visit of the North Atlantic Council delegation is not set yet.
North Atlantic Council members last visited Ukraine in June 2008.
