“We are waiting for the path of negotiations, which should culminate in the signing of the Agreement on Ukraine's accession to the EU.

We expect to complete this path in less than two years.

And then Ukraine will become a full member of the EU,” he said.

According to the politician, after joining the EU, all barriers to trade will be lifted for Ukraine and restrictions on the movement of labor will be lifted, and the authorities will have access to EU structural and investment funds.

Earlier, the head of the EC, Ursula von der Leyen, announced the visit of an EC delegation to Kyiv in early February to discuss Ukraine's preparations for joining the EU.

At the same time, von der Leyen did not specify the number of European commissioners who will go to Kyiv.
