September 05, 2013 | 19:31
President of the European Council Herman Van Rompuy said Ukraine’s
Association Agreement with the European Union would not damage the
country’s long-standing ties with Russia.
Speaking during the lecture at the European University of Saint
Petersburg, Herman Van Rompuy touched upon Association Agreements
with Ukraine, Armenia and Moldova.
“We share common borders, and also common neighbours. Ukraine,
Armenia, Moldova which matter to us both, have to define their own
path. But in our view, for Ukraine, an Association Agreement with the
European Union would not damage the country’s long-standing ties with
Russia. Why should it have to be a case of ‘either/or’?” he said.
