Message: <blockquote data-quote="A Man Called Charolais" data-source="post: 69126">The number of Ukrainians supporting EU accession appears to be growing. Fifty-nine-percent support the notion of their country becoming a member of the 28-nation-bloc. Twenty-four percent are opposed to its admission. That appears to be a new trend, as last year the number of EU-proponents in Ukraine was much lower.These are the results of the current DW-Trends for Ukraine. The representative survey was conducted by the Office of the Ukrainian research institute, IFAK, in June 2013 on behalf of DW'S Ukrainian language department. One thousand people, between the ages of 18 and 65 years, were interviewed in Ukrainian cities with more than 50,000 people.<a href="https://www.dw.com/en/ukraine-eu-support-up-again/a-16924061" target="_blank">Ukraine: EU support up - DW</a>07/03/2013Next week, an association agreement with the EU is on the table at a summit in Vilnius, Lithuania. While falling short of giving Ukraine EU member status, the agreement provides for free trade with <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/world/europe-news" target="_blank">Europe</a> and is seen as a symbolic move westward, away from the former Communist masters in Moscow.A furious Kremlin has used a combination of small potential carrots and huge potential sticks, warning that if Ukraine signs the agreement it could lead to economic turmoil and political unrest.
