". − I voted in favour of this resolution because Ukraine has high importance for the EU and we therefore have especially to remind Ukraine of its obligations to fulfil the criteria of the rule of law and an independent judiciary. Nevertheless, I would like to underline the importance of the EFTA. Ukraine is at the crossroads and the EU has to demonstrate its political commitment to engage in deeper and far-reaching relations with this country. I support conditionality and reciprocity. All the same, I call on the EU to be careful in its assessment of whether to delay the signing of the EFTA. We should not forget that Ukrainians are Europeans and that their future is associated with the EU. Various civil society organisations are vocally calling for EFTA without delay and I believe we have to listen to them. The EU should not give in on its demands for an independent judiciary, but it should also think twice before putting EFTA in the balance during the political bargaining, considering that the people who will suffer most from the delay are the ordinary Ukrainian citizens."@en1
