November 28, 2006 -- U.S. President George W. Bush says NATO remains receptive to the idea of Georgia and Ukraine eventually joining the alliance.
Bush said "we will continue to support Georgia's desire to become a NATO member" and also said that membership "will be open to the Ukrainian people if they choose it."
He was speaking before the start of a two-day NATO summit in the Latvian capital, Riga.
