On December 8, Prime Minister of Ukraine Denis Shmygal discussed key issues on the agenda of EU-Ukraine relations with EU diplomacy chief Josep Borrell and EU Commissioner for neighborhood and enlargement Oliver Varheyli during an online meeting.
Josep Borrell stressed the importance of restoring criminal responsibility for lies in declarations and criticized the compromise version of the law adopted by the Verkhovna Rada to resolve the constitutional crisis. In his opinion, it does not provide the necessary deterrent and preventative effect.
