The future of Ukraine is in the EU

Media

By the end of spring, Ukraine will obtain an interim report on EU integration. Negotiations may be started only after all the requirements are met.

Experts note that Ukraine is actively adopting the European acquis.  

This week, the country officially became the 36th member of the EU Civil Protection Mechanism — the world's largest system of international aid in emergency situations. 

Another step towards European integration is the decision to establish contractual relations with the EU within the framework of the Hague Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Judgments in Civil or Commercial Matters.

We talk in detail about it with Mykhailo Pashkov, co-director of foreign policy and international security programmes at Razumkov Centre.
