Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko met with European Union Foreign Policy Chief Catherine Ashton during his official visit to Belarus.
During his meeting with Ashton in Minsk, Petro stated that he will ratify Association Agreement with the EU in September and immediately send ratification documents to Brussels.
Poroshenko added that parliamentary elections which will be held on October 26, will not hinder the ratification of the agreement.
“Our integration into the EU is our civilizational choice which is in no way aimed against anyone. Instead, the agreement will positively affect relations with all our neighbors, especially in the economic sphere. We would like our international partners to accept our decision,” Poroshenko said in a statement on his official website.
