Poland supports Ukraine's Euro Atlantic aspirations

Polish foreign minister Radoslaw Sikorski has told his Ukrainian opposite number Volodymyr Ohryzko that Poland supports Ukraine's aspirations to join the Euro Atlantic structures.



Minister Ohryzko is paying a working visit to Warsaw. Radoslaw Sikorski stressed that Ukraine is the biggest country covered by the EU's Eastern Partnership, championed by Poland.

Warsaw wants to lower the cost of visas for Ukrainians and eventually to introduce a visa-free traffic between Ukraine and the Schengen zone. It also backs the idea of opening the EU labor market to Ukrainian workers. Minister Ohryzko said that Ukraine's entry into the EU and NATO will increase European security. He assured that preparations for the Euro 2012 championships, which Poland and Ukraine will co-host, are proceeding without interruptions in Ukraine.
