Kozhara: Ukraine to be ready for signing Association in September - ForUm

Kozhara: Ukraine to be ready for signing Association in September - ForUm:

"Ukraine will decide in September problematic issues required to sign the Association Agreement with the European Union, foreign minister of Ukraine Leonid Kozhara predicts.

"Ukraine together with the European Commission worked out the Action Plan, which is being implemented now. This action plan is actually implemented by 95%, there are only a few problematic issues that we, I think, will close in September," the minister said in interview.

He told that it is about a number of bills relating to the prosecutor's office, elections, as well as the implementation of anti-corruption legislation.

Foreign minister noted that the anti-discrimination bill has not been passed by Parliament. "It is difficult to predict how the Verkhovna Rada will respond to anti-discrimination law. So far the government has failed to provide a positive consideration of the bill in the Parliament," the minister said, adding that the bill does not directly concern the signing of the Association Agreement, however, it is directly related to the dialogue on visa liberalization with the EU.
