XIII Ukraine – EU Summit
“Recognizing that Ukraine as a European country shares a common history and common values with the countries of the European Union, acknowledging the European aspirations of Ukraine and welcoming its European choice…” with such a phrase begins joint declaration of XIII Ukraine – EU Summit.
Involuntarily the question arises, what have been doing the EU representatives with their Ukrainian counterparts last 12 Summits? Probably they were determining that Ukraine is not an African country.
Being serious, Ukraine seeks to sign an agreement on Association and the agreement on a Free Trade Area (FTA) with the EU. And as usual, nothing significant is signed, the general phrases are declared.
I’m wondering, how many Summits more we will organize to cancel the visa regime, to sign and to implement the FTA and the agreement on Association. Place your bets ladies and gentlemen…
Now the second event, not less offensive versus Ukraine. The same day, Montenegro joined the Membership Action Plan in NATO (MAP). I wonder, what criteria the NATO is guided are… Ukraine, with its armed forces, and Montenegro. Who has the best armed forces? Probably Ukraine has.
By the way, I’d like to admit, when Romania joined the NATO, its armed forces was using the MIG-17, old planes, which Ukraine is not using already about 30 years. Probably, Ukraine can’t get the MAP, because NATO is afraid of Russia. So, let’s say “thank you” our northern neighbor.
