This paper discusses the likelihood of an agreement between the European Union and Ukraine. According to the author, by the 3rd Eastern Partnership summit in November 2013, there is a chance that an Association Agreement between the European Union and Ukraine will be signed, although the continuation of socio-economic reforms and improvement of democracy in the country remain among the necessary preconditions. Polish efforts to bring Ukraine closer to the EU should focus on persuading the Ukrainian authorities to take concrete steps on reforms and the democratization of the country, argues the author.
