of public broadcasting thank you for agreeing to talk today, june 23, ukraine received the status of a candidate country to join the european union, however, ukraine began its european integration path long before it signed the agreement about the association with the european union, and first of all i would like to talk about the fact that now with this agreement, to what extent ukraine is progressing on the way to implementing the plan regarding the association agreement, indeed, we have been living in a certain new reality for several months now, where we have proved to the whole world that by fighting the biggest one of of the largest armies in the world, we can still win victories during this war . and the association agreement actually became the basis for such a decision to be made, because

usually the candidate country even receives from countries after a long number of years of negotiations and evaluations, and in this context, for the past 8 years, together with the european union, we have implemented all reforms as a basis for corporate reforms, public procurement reforms, various sectoral changes, after all , there was an association agreement because it is a collection of best practices of how the european union works to make it look the way we imagine it, so at the time of applying for membership, we had already fulfilled most of our obligations, which was confirmed by the european union, which confirmed that we a capable economy, capable state institutions and a capable state, and yet this agreement remains valid despite the fact that ukraine received the status of a candidate for eu membership, and when is it planned to be fully implemented, or is it

even possible to fully implement it, taking into account that, it is quite not the first freshness, definitely not the first freshness it was not the first freshness even at the time of its signing actually on september 5, uh, there were delegations headed by the prime minister in brussels, in fact, it was the first such top the meeting after ukraine received candidate status is already in the format of expansion, what did we agree on? we agreed on what? by the president, the parliament and the government is that by the end of the year to do everything we can do according to the association agreement, we are moving in this direction, we need to implement more than 100 e-e different standards of the european union, for this we have

developed all the acts, most of them need laws in the parliament, in the parliament, work until the end of the year is also planned in the government. the european council has set seven tasks for the union in ukraine. i did my homework. i would like to list this in particular : the reform of the constitutional court, the continuation of the judicial reform, and anti-corruption, including the appointment thanks to god, the head of sap has already been appointed, and the fight against money laundering, the implementation of the anti-oligarchic law, the harmonization of the media legislation with the european one, and the amendment of the legislation on national minorities, since the successful implementation of these seven tasks, you know, one emphasis is important here, indeed , these seven conditions are defined by the european commission, which recommended to the leaders to grant ukraine candidate status, but the decision itself on june 23 provides that

ukraine definitely received candidate status regardless of the implementation of these regardless of fulfillment of these conditions, but further negotiations , the further path to joining the european union depends on ukraine's implementation of these seven recommendations, the ability to fulfill seven political criteria opens the way to negotiations to negotiations with member states for today. in the conditions of war a there is complete unity regarding the implementation of these seven recommendations, which have already been noted by a-a after the appointment of the prosecutor general, his first decision was the appointment of a specialized prosecutor of the anti-corruption prosecutor's office. we have resolved all issues and started a competition for the director of the anti-corruption

bureau . a terrorist state, we will pursue it wherever possible, moreover , even before the publication of these self -recommendations, back in march, reform which of these seven items of homework from the european union is the most difficult for negotiations with the european union? i have been conducting negotiations with the european union for many years, and perhaps the most difficult criteria are those that are too general, that is, the european union always leaves room for maneuver. yes, that's right. it was the same and when there were negotiations on the visa-free regime at the time when this decision was made, it was possible to either endlessly implement some recommendations, because at some point to stop and

say that progress is sufficient and a block of these recommendations that relate to the implementation of international standards for combating the recovery of funds and the financing of terrorism, and here, if the field for such an assessment is very large, because the number of these recommendations is actually infinite, they can also be carried out for a long time, but they are updated regularly, they are updated, ukraine is evaluated together with other countries. that is this is such a long process that, in principle, can only be completed politically , but in order to prevent this uncertainty, we held negotiations with the european commission. they should provide us with a comprehensive list of their expectations, but in parallel with this, the parliament has already adopted changes to the legislation and the government has introduced new changes for consideration by the parliament, so we hope for a constructive position. you have already mentioned the meeting of the association council of ukraine. the eu in brussels the day before and how

is ukraine's fulfillment of the obligations assumed by these seven points in general, and what they said to work on, you know, i was very positively surprised because we are so prime minister and the pit was prepared in such a way that we now have nothing, we will now say no, we have fulfilled everything for you there, we are not ready to take on additional obligations, but this dialogue was much more positive than we expected, and the european commission confirmed the implementation of the recommendation regarding the appointment of prosecutors, sap confirmed the successful launch of the competition for the selection of the director of nabu confirmed that they support the adoption of the law on media and all other recommendations that are actually in this list and also directly in at the time of the negotiations, the parliament voted on some more important bills regarding the selection of judges of

the constitutional court and the fight against finn on the issue of terrorism, and in fact the recommendations or expectations of the european union, they are quite realistic . they said that we are moving in the right direction, but of course we always scare the european union a little with the dynamics of processes, usually changes to legislation, for example, on the selection of judges the constitutional court needed long dialogues , political consultations were the conclusions of the venice commission, today everything is happening as quickly as possible, and already in these negotiations there was a call from our side for european institutions to keep up with our speed, this is a demand for the completion of the reform of the regulatory and legal framework for national minorities, that's right. i ask, this is a demand of hungary, definitely the voice of hungary. it was heard during the formation of

this recommendation, eh, nevertheless, despite all this, i see that it is sufficiently balanced, that is, eh let's put it this way, the leaders of the european union and the leaders of the european institutions did not give in to emotions. yes , when formulating these recommendations, we, on our part, try to write the legislation as correctly as possible, and moreover, this experience of relations between hungary and other countries in recent years has shown that most of the issues that arise in protection of the rights of national minorities, they can be resolved at the government level through state programs, certain incentives for agreement at the regional level at the central level and it is not necessary to enter everything into legislation, i can confirm that at the level of the parliament, the government, at the level of the verkhovna rada human rights commissioner, there is a permanent inclusive dialogue with national minorities, but we are aware that

this issue can be politicized, we see all the risks, but we are firmly convinced that we will also implement this recommendation. predict with the same firm confidence that when ukraine becomes a member of the european union, it will be in years or decades . then fate or other circumstances make their adjustments, if this decision depends solely on ukraine, i could objectively predict that in 2024, ukraine may start joining the european union, but it depends not only on ukraine, even if we fulfill the entire association agreement, even if we implement all seven recommendations and start membership negotiations at each of these stages, we will need to mobilize the unity of the 27 countries of the european union both to start the negotiations and to conclude the negotiations and to

knowledge of the european union before the opening of financing of the internal european union , that is, let's say that experience we have to repeat that experience of our work to maintain the candidate status many times during the entire period before joining the eu and it is difficult and it is closely intertwined with the internal problems of the european union union, this is intertwined with the unfolding of the war in ukraine. yes, its duration is due to the fact that the same eu leaders have to make decisions about military aid and sanctions to agree on the restoration to agree on the coverage of certain costs of social budgets and on the accession of european to ukraine to the eu these are all the same people and we have to mobilize for each stage a certain window of political opportunities and here it is difficult to manage the deadlines for

the mobilization of the countries of the european union recently , forbes magazine ranked the friends of ukraine as the country that helped us the most since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of russia, and among european countries, poland helped us the most balti well and the united kingdom how would you generally assess the mobilization of the countries of europe, not only the european union, there are also others that are not members of the eu in support of ukraine from february 24, there is a huge difference between what answer can i give to this question now yes when a full-scale war has been going on there for 6.5 months and how would i answer this question let's say on the 28th of february of this year of course now all processes are already structured systemic military aid is coordinated through the rammstein format financially

sanctions are flown and coordinated through the format of the big seven, and negotiations regarding financial support are being conducted with the european union and the international monetary fund a with a general message that the western world of democracies will be with ukraine as much as necessary in terms of military aid and financial aid and sanctions of pressure, this situation certainly did not take place. on february 24, the leaders of these countries who became unarmed with us will be remembered the most, yes, and simply side by side, definitely one of such leaders is the ex-prime minister boris johnson of the united kingdom has now been replaced by a forest stress and well, it so happened that almost simultaneously with this, the monarch also changed. in the united kingdom after the death of elizabeth, what should we count on now in ukraine, that is, from the united kingdom, considering this

almost complete change authorities i have no doubt that the policy of great britain it will only intensify in relation to the role of britain itself in the international arena in relation to the key role of great britain at the end of this war, that is, if so conditionally, within the team, we share the key role of each of the major countries in ending the war or in supporting ukraine. britain is the biggest advocate of victory, this includes military aid and political support, and so on. i am sure that it will increase. i know that the forest is once a powerful , strong leader, a female leader and as christine lagarde once said, if you want to achieve a result and solve a problem, call a woman and i hope that this will also have its effect . she has support in the parliament, she formed

a powerful government, she left key people such as the minister of defense in the government, and moreover, even in the pre-war period, i am responsible for euro-atlantic integration, they were responsible for building a system of state stability in various conditions, including in conditions of full-scale war has always been this model, that is, it is the basis of the functioning of state institutions, which are unshakable, so there are no doubts. we, on the contrary , are already thinking for ten years ahead about how we will build our relations on the basis of this basis which we have already built now, in your opinion, in general , the european union has done enough to restrain russia's armed aggression against ukraine.

but i would not divide them, then again, these are almost the same leaders, yes. that is, we have to talk about personalities, because now all the decisions that are made are personal, they are individual, you cannot ask the bureaucracy to do anything, that is decisions are made directly by the leaders. let's take an example. ukraine is demanding from the european union and the crimea of ​​europe that they stop issuing visas to citizens of the russian federation . instead, we have received the result so far that the agreement on the simplified visa procedure is canceled. in your opinion, should we count on that? which is nevertheless presented at the request of ukraine regarding non -extradition with the russians that they cannot help but do something in the matter of visa policy, especially when a week before the adoption of this decision independent as possible analytical center

in russia levada center published in the data of sociological research according to which 74% of the citizens of the russian federation among the respondents support the killing of the civilian population war e-e war in ukraine and actually in these conditions people still want to go to the european union there learn to live and rent housing, do business , keep assets there. this is absolutely unacceptable , so the eu could not fail to make this decision if it was a decision to completely refuse to issue visas to the citizens of the russian federation this would be a true manifestation of such political leadership of a political position, instead, such a half-hearted decision was made to cancel the simplification, such a bureaucratic decision that there are certain restrictions on ours, and indeed, if you impose on the practice of canceling this simplified procedure for obtaining visas , it is actually the impossibility of obtaining a visa, well, that is, it is very difficult, it is the most expensive and more expensive and difficult, and there is a

certain space for me in rivne, the future is yes, but this is, again, a half-hearted decision that the kremlin actually likes what it shows for them, they read it as an element of weakness, and this decision is exactly what it is for us, a continuation of such a policy of strategic uncertainty, this term was formed in 2007-8 after putin's speech in munich and also after the bucharest speech itself, in nato when there was a policy of deterring russia due to uncertainty, due to the unwillingness to annoy it , to create conditions so that, god forbid, putin would not be annoyed and start some kind of hybrid military actions, and all this policy led to nothing but to a full-scale war in the heart of europe, mass casualties of the civilian population, this policy is not effective and we are very upset when

a decision is made in the spirit of such a policy and i always say that the leaders do not need to be afraid because they have already taken on a huge responsibility they must carry it to the end whatever sanctions ukraine could demand from the european union, which would be more effective than those currently in place, there is a full understanding that energy carriers and gas are the achilles heel of the russian federation the main tool of blackmail and the actual implementation of restrictive measures and in various areas bypassing strict measures in the area that will most painfully hit russia, will hit the people who give orders to kill the civilian population, this is a manifestation of weakness, today the eighth package of sanctions is being agreed upon. the latest package of sanctions, and the longer the european union,

which is a pioneer in sanctions policy, will think about half-hearted solutions and prioritize russia's restrictions, unity, and when this the change will change yes er in favor of the fact that it is necessary to introduce such restrictions that will really be able to restrain russia and end the war then eh then eh i think that the russian federation will behave differently so far we do not see in this perspective but we consider that the highest priority the most important are the sanctions to completely limit russia's access to the energy market in europe and the west as a whole, and that 's all about nato. recently, at the end of july , a sociological study was conducted in kyiv by the international institute of sociology, which demonstrated that more than 70% of ukrainians are in favor of ukraine's membership in nato, and if a referendum were held, more than

90% of people would vote for ukraine's membership in nato, however, recently in an interview with european pravda, you said the following phrase: today, nato has nothing special to offer us as an organization does this mean that for the time being the issue of ukraine's accession to nato has been put on hold in the government, the story is that today we are not playing politics today we are fighting on the battlefield we are surviving in our country a full-scale war is taking place and this is not the time for political statements from the declaration, it is not even about the fact that the russian federation makes any demands. in the same interview, she also drew attention to the fact that there are no such demands, because the russian federation's border with nato has already doubled and ukraine has nothing to do with this process itself, i.e. ukraine , the payment is such a possible trigger for this. yes, we are very pleased that we are pushing for important

decisions regarding other countries and at the time we were unable to advance this decision regarding ukraine, i.e. from the point from the point of view of politics, now is not the time to promote this issue, but from the point of view of the end of the war, security guarantees are definitely five-fifths article of the washington treaty, this is a key element of sovereignty and protection of territorial integrity, but this is possible only for a country that is a member too ago today without the fact that the fifth article of the washington treaty is extended to us, nato cannot offer anything special to a country that is at war and that seeks to end the war and restore peace. well, how would you assess the overall asset of ukraine's membership in to the north atlantic alliance and even before the end of the war, if we take into account, for example, that sweden and finland actually became members of the alliance, bypassing certain procedures, without an action plan regarding

membership. for example, two days ago or a few days ago, and the russian armed forces shot an evacuation group with civilians who were trying to evacuate from melitopol, that is, every decision that is made can cost the lives of our citizens, so in issues related to nato has no policy. that is , we do not play politics and do not throw around any slogans if the decision to join nato will serve our interests, the end of the war, a ceasefire and negotiations with the russian federation if this decision will meet our interests at specific moments in the conditions of a full-scale war and will not

endanger the lives of our citizens, it can be adopted but again, there is a pragmatic calculation here, the president, the head of the office, the negotiating team are conducting negotiations on broad international security guarantees, and the prosecutor general is conducting negotiations and conducting cases regarding russia's responsibility for crimes, all these processes are related to ending the war, holding russia accountable and preempting russia's desire to start new wars, if at any of these stages of the question, a member of the tornado will serve these interests this decision must be adopted, we will believe that it will happen sooner, we will defeat russia, we will return all our territories, we will return all our people who were deported and taken away, it is a pity that we cannot to resurrect those who died, those who died because of it, but full of hope
