Ukraine hailed as 'potentially huge market' for European business: theparliament.com:

"A senior Ukrainian government minister has said that the country's much-awaited association agreement with the EU is a "once in a lifetime" opportunity on the path towards deeper European integration.

Speaking exclusively to TheParliament.com, first deputy prime minister Serhiy Arbuzov predicted a two to three per cent growth in Ukraine's gross domestic product if the agreement is signed at a summit later this year.

Arbuzov, who until recently was governor of the national bank of Ukraine, also said the EU stood to gain from any such deal as it would open up a potentially "huge market" for European businesses. "It is a win-win situation," he said, "but this is a once in a lifetime opportunity and one that we must grasp with both hands.""
