Ukraine will fulfill its obligations under the reform program established in 2015 and in accordance with the Association Agreement with the EU and invites the European Union to discuss a new program of support for our state.

Prime Minister of Ukraine Volodymyr Groysman said this during talks with President of the European Council Donald Tusk and President of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker. The meeting was held within the framework of the Ukraine-EU summit, which began in Kyiv, the Governmental portal reports.

The Head of Government stresses that Ukraine welcomes the completion of the ratification process of the Association Agreement with the European Union and carries out reforms amid complicated conditions of the hybrid war. At the moment, the Cabinet is working on the creation of an innovative tool for monitoring the implementation of the Association Agreement, the so-called agreement pulse, which will be introduced in September of 2017, and counts on the appropriate EU support in this direction, Groysman said.
