The Government of Ukraine is ready for the great work to eliminate differences and misunderstandings caused by insufficient knowledge of the text of the Association Agreement with the EU, Azarov posted on Facebook, the Cabinet’s press office reports.
"There is still a lot of work to eliminate differences, misunderstandings, confusion, caused, in my opinion by insufficient knowledge of a large text. However, we are ready for this work and will continue it persistently," Azarov said.
He also expressed the hope that the process is to be furthered by the work of the Committee on Trade and Economic Affairs of the Ukrainian-Russian intergovernmental commission, which will be held in Russia on October 15, and the Prime Minister's visit to Minsk, scheduled for October 7 - 8, and meeting with the leadership of Belarus.
Prime Minister recalled that some time ago in Kazakhstan he participated in a meeting of the Eurasian Economic Union at the level of heads of government. Ukraine and Kyrgyzstan attended the meeting as observers.
"Thus, the practical implementation of the 3 +1 formula with the participation of Ukraine in the Customs Union as an observer has begun. Frankly, it was a very useful trip. For us, cooperation with the countries of the CIS and the Customs Union is very important not only because they account for a significant share of trade turnover, but also because long-term cooperative relations between our companies. Frankly, the discussions were quite difficult and, probably, it is quite natural. The most important thing is that the discussions were frank and, constructive," Azarov said.
