Ukraine plans to soon join the EU roaming space and the single payment area in the European currency SEPA.
The first will allow you to make calls between EU and Ukraine at no additional cost, and will also allow Ukrainians to use mobile Internet at home rates. The second one can take place already in the summer and will allow making transfers in euros without commissions.
Prime Minister Denis Shmigal spoke about this on May 24.
On April 24, 2007, the European Parliament, by a majority of votes, decided on the creation of a single payment system of the European Union (SEPA), within the framework of which it will be possible to make payments in all 27 EU countries using one bank account.
As previously reported, the European Union extended sanctions against the stripped of the title of president Ukraine Viktor Yanukovych and his henchmen for another year. According to Rikard Jozwiak, the EU member states' ambassadors will decide to continue freezing the assets of Yanukovych and 14 other former Ukrainian officials. At the same time, the EU decided to lift sanctions from ex-regional Yuri Ivanyushchenko, who was also part of Yanukovych's entourage.
Thus, in addition to Viktor Yanukovych, the EU sanctions list includes: Vitaly Zakharchenko, Viktor Pshonka, Olena Lukash, Andriy Klyuev, Viktor Ratushnyak, Alexander Yanukovych, Artem Pshonka, Sergei Klyuev, Mykola Azarov, Sergei Kurchenko, Dmitry Tabachnik, Sergei Arbuzov, Alexander Klimenko and Eduard Stavitsky.
Recall, The European Parliament abolished import EU duties for Ukraine for a year.
