At his today’s meeting with members of Yalta European Strategy Board of Directors Victor Pinchuk and Alexandr Kwasniewski, Viktor Yanukovych said that integration into the European Union has always been, is and will be the main strategic goal of Ukraine.

The President said that bringing living standards of Ukrainian people on par with the European ones is considered to be an essential part of integration into the European Union. He also added that Ukrainian legislation is being harmonized with European and a number of reforms are to be implemented in 2010.

"This is not Ukrainian tribute to European fashion. These steps do not have political overtones, but are extremely necessary measures both for the state and society. The country has actually stopped in its development, since no strategic decisions were taken," stressed the Head of State.
