European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker has said he is satisfied with the progress of reforms in Ukraine.

"We are encouraging the Ukrainian government to pursue the reform process which is under way. We are satisfied with the speed and with the content of the reforms which are pushed forward by the Ukrainian government," Juncker said at a joint press conference with Ukrainian Prime Minister Volodymyr Groysman in Brussels on Tuesday.

"More has to be done. But when it comes to reforms everywhere in Europe, the reform process has to be accelerated. The same applies to Ukraine. But we are so far satisfied with what was undertaken by Ukraine," he added.
