Frustrated EU warns Ukraine time is running out for trade talks | Reuters:

"The European Union warned Ukraine on Friday that time was running out to resolve a number of bilateral trade disputes and secure the signing of a landmark free trade agreement, after the latest round of talks produced no results.

The former Soviet republic hopes to sign agreements on political association and free trade with the 28-member bloc at a summit in Vilnius, Lithuania, in November.

But it has yet to meet conditions set out by Brussels, which is concerned by the Ukrainian government's protectionist policies as well as what it sees as politically motivated persecution of political opponents."
