The European People’s Party (EPP) has approved a resolution on the development of the long-term support plan for Ukraine and Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko expects European partners to take steps to create a ‘Marshall Plan for Ukraine’.
“Wonderful news from Malta on the results of my visit to the Congress of the European People’s Party. I want to thank the EPP family for the very important resolution on the initiative of our Lithuanian partners to develop a long-term plan to support Ukraine, the so-called ‘Marshall Plan for Ukraine’,” Poroshenko wrote on his Facebook page on Friday evening.
According to him, this resolution “proves the determination of the most influential political family of Europe” to support Ukraine on the path of reforms and the desire to help Ukraine realize its European integration aspirations through all possible means.
“I look forward to the further steps of the European partners in implementing the idea of creating a ‘Marshall Plan for Ukraine’ and I will be ready to discuss this issue during the next contacts with the leaders of the EU institutions and member states,” the Ukrainian president wrote.
