The Verkhovna Rada plans to adopt the bills necessary for Ukraine's accession to the EU before the decision to start accession negotiations is announced, said Speaker Ruslan Stefanchuk during a press conference with European Parliament President Robert Mecola in Brussels, reports UNN .

The latest report on Ukraine noted Ukraine's tremendous progress in implementing 7 recommendations. The Ukrainian parliament has adopted all the necessary legislation, and after the report of the President of the European Commission, it was noted that it is necessary to pay attention to some point issues related to the activities of the NABU, issues related to declarations, and issues related to national minorities

, Stefanchuk said.

He added that two of these laws were passed in the first reading at the last session of the Verkhovna Rada.

By the time the decision is made, the Ukrainian parliament will have passed these documents in the second reading. By the time this decision is made, Ukraine will not give anyone any reason to doubt that we meet the Copenhagen criteria and deserve to start negotiations on full membership in the EU

- said the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada.

To add

The laws mentioned by Stefanchuk concern the increase of the NABU staff to 1000 people and the possibility for the NACP to check the property of declarants acquired before the civil service.

In late November, the Verkhovna Rada held a preparatory meeting on the draft law on minority rights, a document that brings Ukraine closer to the start of EU membership negotiations, so it is expected to be considered as soon as possible.

As a reminder, on November 8, the European Commission officially recommended that the EU Council start the process of negotiations with Ukraine on EU membership.
