Ukraine – Lost In Transformation?

posted by Anna-Maria Müller at 15h06 GMT on Sep 14

Three years after facing the Orange Revolution, Ukraine continues to struggle with political instability: During a summit with officials from the European Union and the Ukrainian government, the achievements of the country, which entered talks with the EU after its peaceful revolution, will be assessed today.

Both sides agree that there are major challenges for Ukraine, but there is no doubt that further and stronger cooperation between the EU and Ukraine is the preferred way to solve societal and political issues and stabilize relations.

Read more about Ukraine's path towards democracy on Radio Free Europe, EUbusiness, in the International Herald Tribune and on BBC News online.

Read the statement of Oleksandr Chalyi, deputy head of the Secretariat of the President of Ukraine, in the Guardian's Comment is Free section and discuss in our forums: What would make you start a revolution?
