The Prime Minister of the Netherlands said that he would not sign an association agreement with Ukraine without "legal guarantees"
The statement of the Dutch Premier leads UNIAN:
Recall that in the Netherlands 6 April this year, a referendum was held on the issue of the association of Ukraine and the EU. In the forms of the referendum there was only one question: “Do you agree to ratify the Association of the European Union and Ukraine?”
With a turnout of around 32,3%, the majority of those who came to the polling stations said Ukraine was “no!” (61,49%). After that, in Kiev, they even tried to put pressure on Amsterdam, announcing that the referendum results were of a recommendatory nature. Initially, Mark Rutte also said that the government is unlikely to take into account the results of the plebiscite. However, as it now turns out, Rutte still could not ignore the opinion of the majority of the political active representatives of the country's population.
According to some information, one of the legal guarantees of the association, Amsterdam requires the legislative possibility of banning the entry of labor from Ukraine for more than 2 months. In fact, it is a taboo on full-fledged visa-free regime.
