Ukraine is anticipating a positive evaluation from the European Union (EU) regarding its progress towards EU membership, according to Deputy Prime Minister Olha Stefanishyna. The EU Commission is set to release its report on Wednesday, and Kyiv hopes that it will recommend opening formal accession talks with Ukraine in December.
Stefanishyna expressed confidence in the assessment, highlighting the continuous dialogue and negotiation between Ukraine and the European Commission. In June, the Commission stated that Ukraine had fulfilled two out of seven conditions required to commence membership talks. Stefanishyna believes that all the agreed-upon steps have been implemented.
