“We reaffirm our readiness to actively cooperate to deepen our cooperation in all areas. We set strategic goals, including integration into the European energy society, integration into the digital market, joint use of the airspace, cooperation in the field of justice and the protection of personal data. All these areas are promising and give us the opportunity to cooperate with the European Union," Honcharuk stressed.
