Boiko: EU wants good relations between Ukraine and Customs Union
The European Union has an interest in the development of good relations between Ukraine and the Customs Union countries, Deputy Prime Minister Yuriy Boiko has said.
"The European Union wants our country to maintain proper, businesslike and well developed relations with the Customs Union countries, in the same way as the European Union is restoring its relations with the Customs Union, as trade between the European Union and the Customs Union exceeds $200 billion. People there look pragmatically at all of these things, and there's a fierce struggle for markets and supplies," he said on the Shuster Live program on Inter TV Channel on Friday.
He said that about 30 countries had signed association agreements with the EU.
"The European Union more than anyone is interested in avoiding a repetition of the situation in February 2009, when the whole of Europe felt what bad relations between Ukraine and Russia are like," Boiko said.
