The European Neighborhood Policy (ENP) in Ukraine Progress Report 2014, which was approved on Wednesday, has recommended that an investigation into the events which happened on Maidan Nezalezhnosti in Kyiv and in Odesa last year be initiated.

"Based on the assessment of its progress in 2014 on implementing the ENP, Ukraine should focus its work in the coming year on:….further independent investigation of the violent acts which occurred during civil protests in November 2013 – February 2014, as well as the tragic events in Odesa in May 2014, with the support of the International Advisory Panel as proposed by the Council of Europe," the report said.

The "Implementation of the European Neighborhood Policy in 2014" report assesses the implementation of the ENP in the EU's 16 Eastern Europe partner countries and provides a set of country specific and regional reports. The report on Ukraine underlines the key developments and reforms made in 2014 and makes recommendations for 2015.
