“The EU Council of Ministers has just adopted a final decision to grant us, Ukrainian citizens, the right to visa-free travel.
On May 17 in Strasbourg, in the premises of the European Parliament, respective legislative act will be solemnly signed pursuant to our agreement with our European friends. Probably, this will be one of my most important visits in three years of service at the post of President of Ukraine”, the president’s statement on the occasion of approval of granting a visa-free regime to Ukraine by the EU council says.
“The decision will be published in the Official Journal of the Union and it will enter into force 20 days after. Approximately on June 11, 34 European countries will turn on the green light for the owners of Ukrainian biometric passports - for visa-free short-term trips. It is a giant step towards Europe, towards assertion of human freedom and independence of our state”, said the Ukrainian president.
April 6, the European Parliament voted for the legislative resolution, allowing visa-free short-term travels to the EU countries for the Ukrainian citizens. On April 26, EU Ambassadors approved visa-free regime for Ukraine.
