Polish ambassador sure EU's visa decision for Ukraine in 2016 to be positive
Polish Ambassador to Ukraine Henryk Litwin has said he is sure that Ukrainians will get a positive decision from EU on visa travel regime already this year.
"I'm sure that in 2016 we will hear a final positive decision. It's difficult to say what time will it take to put it into life. But I believe in 2016 we will hear the decision and by early 2017 it would be implemented," Litwin told the journalists in Kharkiv on Thursday.
Besides, the diplomat has said Poland is a strong supporter of the introduction of visa regime with the EU for Ukrainians.
"We in Poland have always stressed that we need to open a border and to introduce a visa free regime with Ukraine. We know it perfectly well that there are no dangers here. This is a benefit for both parties: both European and Ukrainian," Litwin said.
