Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko will pay a working visit to Brussels on August 30, the Ukrainian presidential press service reported.

"Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko has accepted an invitation from European Council President Herman Van Rompuy and European Commission President Jose Manuel Barroso to make a working visit to Brussels on August 30," the presidential website reported, following a telephone conversation between Poroshenko and Barroso.

The Ukrainian presidential press service had reported earlier that Minsk would host a top-level Ukraine-European Union-Customs Union meeting on August 26 to address the implementation of the EU-Ukraine association agreement, energy security, and efforts to stabilize the situation in eastern Ukraine.

"Finally, a road map is being planned which could help end the war and move toward peace. For the first time, direct multilateral talks have been planned in the Ukraine-EU-Eurasian Troika format on August 26. And the president of Ukraine is going to Brussels on August 30. It would be good if nothing and nobody could ruin this hope. Keeping our fingers crossed," deputy presidential chief of staff Valeriy Chaly said in commenting on Poroshenko's plans on his Facebook account.
