BRUSSELS, Jan. 21 – The European Commission said it hopes soon to give a positive recommendation for cancellation of visa travel regime with EU for Ukraine and in 2016 build on current support programs to improve the business climate, provide support to small and medium-sized enterprises, and help Ukraine find new markets.

"In 2016 will be stepping up our efforts to support Ukraine with more co-ordination with EU member states and greater visibility for our work, particularly on implementation of the DCFTA," said Commissioner for European Neighborhood and Enlargement Negotiations Johannes Hahn at a European Parliament plenary session.
