The European Union considers material and technical assistance to Ukraine in the security area as investment in the EU security, Ambassador of the EU to Ukraine Jan Tombinski has said.

"We believe that support of Ukraine is support of the EU: security has no borders and safe Ukraine is good for the EU. Our investment in this assistance is investment in security of the European Union," he said at a joint meeting of the Interior Ministry and Justice Ministry in Kyiv on Wednesday.

He said that Ukraine is on the way of reforms not because Europeans demand this, but Ukrainian society demands this.

"We're here as partners of Ukraine and we will be able to help," the ambassador said.
