European Union think tank said Monday that the bloc should make specific commitments to Ukraine after Russia sent troops into Georgia, according to Moscow Times.
Relations with Ukraine, with which the EU holds a joint summit on Sept. 9, should be a key plank of such a strategy, the council said.
"The EU should ... make a special commitment to Ukraine," the think tank said in a policy brief.
"It should recognize the right to EU membership in future, agree to a more liberal visa regime, offer a solidarity clause backing Ukraine`s territorial integrity, and move to integrate Ukraine into the EU`s energy market."
