"Without a doubt, the processes of late 1980's - early 1990's of the last century happened in Germany were not only crucial for development of the state of Germany, but also laid the basis for the formation of a new order in Europe. They also opened up new prospects for the countries of the Central and Eastern Europe, including Ukraine. We are grateful to Germany for help in implementing important reforms in Ukraine. We hope for the effective support of the Federal Republic of Germany for the European integration course of our country," congratulatory message to Gauck says.

"We appreciate the practical assistance of the government of Germany in the implementation of systemic reforms in Ukraine and the implementation of European integration policy of our state. We hope for the support of Germany in signing the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement at the summit of the "Eastern Partnership" in Vilnius," the message reads.
