In addition, they will hear outstanding lectures on NATO issues delivered by experts, the aim being to provide both a military and civilian perspective on the new challenges which NATO will face in the near future.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Specifically, the theme for the 2010 KYIV Week is &#8220;NATO- Developing a New Strategic Concept&#8221;, and it will allow the NDC delegation to provide UNDA students with information about a very sensitive and topical issue.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">During the week, non-military students attending the Diplomatic Academy will join the Course for the first time ever, thus giving a clear sign of Ukraine&#8217;s commitment to cooperation with NATO.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Because of the local media&#8217;s strong interest in the KYIV Week, Lieutenant General Wolf Dieter LOESER will give several interviews to Ukrainian newspapers and television, answering questions on the NDC&#8217;s educational methods, the results achieved in ten years of cooperation with the UNDA and future plans to enhance this cooperation.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">NATO&#8217;s support for Senior Military Education in Ukraine was launched on 28th January 2000, when Mr. Kuzmuk, the Ukrainian Defence Minister, met the then NATO Secretary General, Lord Robertson, and they agreed to run an international course at the Ukrainian National Defence Academy in Kyiv.<\/p>\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">\n<p class=\"FooterSignature\" >LtCol.
