The European Commission has confirmed that Ukraine has completed four additional reforms necessary for the opening of negotiations on accession to the European Union.
Ukrainian Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal said this in a post on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.
"The European Commission supports the start of negotiations on Ukraine's accession to the EU. We are grateful for the positive assessment of our European integration progress. The EC conclusion states that Ukraine continues its systematic efforts to join the EU and has completed all four additional reform steps," he wrote.
Shmyhal noted that from now on Ukraine expects its European partners to take the next step - to start the negotiations on membership in the European Union already this month.
"The people of Ukraine are defending every day their right to be part of the European family in the war against the Russian aggressor," he said.
