Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has said the association agreement between Ukraine and the European Union does not pose any threats to third countries and commodity producers may even benefit from it.
“This agreement does not pose any threats to any countries. We now
have enough convincing arguments for that. And we are interested in open
dialogue with all interested parties,” Poroshenko told a press
conference in Brussels on June 27.
Poroshenko also said Russia should be interested in this agreement
“because Ukraine can be a bridge enabling Russia commodities to enter
European markets.”
