Ukraine and the EU on Monday reached an agreement on an action plan to scrap visas for Ukrainian nationals for short stays in the EU, European Parliament President Herman Van Rompuy said.
The agreement was signed by Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and European Commission President Jose-Manuel Barroso.
Ukraine hopes that visa requirements will be lifted in time for the European Football Championships in 2012.
