The Government has approved a plan to fulfill the EC's recommendations

At a meeting on Friday, February 9, the Cabinet of Ministers approved an action plan to implement the European Commission's recommendations for the start of negotiations on Ukraine's membership in the EU.

This was reported by RBC-Ukraine, citing a statement by Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration Olha Stefanishyna.

"This is a comprehensive document of more than a hundred pages, designed to structure and unite the efforts of the authorities to implement the recommendations of the European Commission, which we received in November 2023 as part of the EU Enlargement Package, and to prepare and effectively participate in the negotiation process for Ukraine's accession to the EU as soon as possible," Stefanishyna said.

The document defines more than 350 measures to implement the European Commission's policy recommendations, as well as key recommendations for all negotiating sections following the cluster approach, deadlines for their implementation, responsible government agencies, and an algorithm for monitoring the implementation of the plan's provisions.

"We aim to continue the dynamic pace on the path to EU membership, so we are going one step ahead, as the action plan is formed taking into account the fact that the European Commission will assess Ukraine's progress under the EU Enlargement Package for the period from June 2023 to June 2024. We must be ready in advance," the Deputy Prime Minister emphasized.
