Ukraine fulfills its obligations under Association Agreement with EU by 70% - Stefanishyna

Ukrinform writes about this.

Olga Stefanishyna, Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine, said that the government expects to receive political clarity from EU leaders on next steps by the end of the year

"Given the challenges that Ukraine is facing, and the fact that the commitment of the Ukrainian people and Ukraine to the principles of democracy is evident, as well as the fact that we have fulfilled almost 70% of all obligations under the Association Agreement, this gives us the opportunity to say that  we don't need to be evaluated from scratch, but we need to make political decisions. And we want to get such political clarity by the end of the year," said the Deputy Prime Minister.

According to her, the desire for such political clarity on the part of Ukraine is "not political pressure, but providing people with the further meaning of political activity."

"I really hope that we will not hear anything negative from the leaders of the EU, but will only receive help and clarification regarding our next steps, regarding the development of new opportunities and the education of a new generation of civil servants who will continue to lead us on this path," she noted.
