The decision of the constitutional court can affect the pace of European integration of Ukraine, said Klimkin.
“It’s more than concern. They believe that the court’s decision can change the entire paradigm of the fight against corruption in Ukraine, and this is a fundamental issue for them. Our partners are not saying that we can’t make decisions in the framework of Ukrainian legal field – they say that we need to resolve this issue”, – he said.
The Minister also believes that this decision may affect the pace of European integration and the perception of Ukraine as a country seeking to change.
“Definitely (can affect the pace of European integration of Ukraine – ed.). It can affect not even on the pace, and on the perception of Ukraine as a country that is changing and strives to go forward. This is one of the key issues that should be explicitly addressed. And to solve it so that it was all a guarantee, not a temporary solution,” Klimkin said.
The Minister added that international partners are extremely concerned about this issue.
