Russia, Kiev and the EU reached agreement on consultations on European integration of Ukraine
Maria Knyazeva. The European Commission recognizes the existence of risks for the economic relations of Russia and Ukraine in connection with the conclusion of Kiev to the Treaty on the Union with the EU, which involves the development of a free trade zone and the transition of Ukraine to a number of EU regulations, said European trade Commissioner Karel de Gucht.
" Trade liberalization within the framework of the Treaty on the unity modifies trade and investment rules in the market of Ukraine. Implementation (new agreements in the field of trade between Ukraine and the EU, as amended) may cause some potential economic risks between the Russian Federation and Ukraine, as well as among them, for the economic operators, " he said at a press conference after the trilateral Ministerial negotiations of the EU-Russia-Ukraine agreement on the unification of Ukraine with the EU.
