EU presses Ukraine to find solution to Timochenko

A question which must be resolved until 18 November when the EU decides if the Association Agreement, the first step for Ukraine's accession to the EU, will be signed or not.

"The time for bluffing, both sides, now is the time for action," said the Polish Foreign Minister, Radoslaw Sikorski.

As for the current situation, his Swedish counterpart, Carl Bildt, was perentório:

"I'm not going to talk about it, we're waiting for the final evaluation, until now said they did not meet the requirements, I'll see if they change."

The former Ukrainian Prime Minister, who is ill, was sentenced to seven years in prison for abuse of power. Ukrainian President admitted to let her leave the country to receive medical care with the obligation to return.

For Arseniy Yatsenuyk, Batkivschyna:

"Even though Iulia Timoshenko agreed out of Ukraine, for the treatment, and come back later to do the time, isn't that what the European Union wants, what you want is the end of political persecution, no pause in it, but stop her."

The European Union suspects that there are political motivations behind the conviction of Timochenco and requires his release.
