"This summit should mark the EU´s will and commitment to its eastern neighbourhood. The EU has to demonstrate that its eastern neighbourhood is of the highest strategic and political importance. It is crucial that we show our Eastern neighbours the same dedication as we do to our Southern neighbours. An increased budget is a must to ensure sufficient tailored assistance. I especially would like to underline the importance of the new association agreement with Ukraine which is about to be signed in December this year. Ukraine has demonstrated its willingness and readiness to be part of Europe and, despite backlashes, has pursued its policies towards deeper European integration. We need to fully acknowledge this fact and make sure these developments will continue by signing the association agreement as soon as possible. I call also upon our Eastern neighbours to step up their efforts towards respect of human rights, democracy, and freedom of speech, media freedom and rule of law. The EU is based on these values and it is crucial that our Eastern neighbours fully implement and respect these values in order to pursue further European integration."@en1
