Pushkov commented on the words of Poroshenko on the imminent entry of Ukraine into the EU
Earlier, the President of Ukraine, in an interview with German media resource Funke, said that the republic would become a member of the European Union within a few years.
He stressed that he created the prerequisites for Ukraine to be first admitted to NATO, and then to the European Union.
Asked by the journalist about the criticism of Ukraine by the EU for indecision in the fight against corruption, Poroshenko said that the country would soon meet the anti-corruption criteria of the European community.
Recall that in 2016, the head of the European Commission, Jean-Claude Juncker, said that Ukraine will not be able to join the EU in the next 20-25 years. He gave the same forecast regarding the republic’s membership in NATO.
