Foreign Affairs Council (FAC) of European Union Member States will look into an issue of granting a visa free travel for Ukraine in March or June, Deputy Foreign Minister of Ukraine for European Integration Olena Zerkal reported.

"As soon as we will be able to persuade justice and interior affairs ministers of the European Union member states that we fulfilled everything and continue improving [legislation], and that this process is irreversible, will depend when the Council of EU will consider this issue – in March or June," Zerkal said in an interview with Channel Five TV broadcast on Friday evening.

She said that the foreign ministry after New Year holidays will be engaged "in a very intensive dialogue" with the European colleagues regarding granting visa free travel to Ukraine.
