Upon signature of the Association Agreement Ukraine has gained an opportunity to deepen its integration into the European labour market. Such integration plays an important role given the fact that about half of the labour migration is directed towards the EU and the share of remittances from the EU amounts to over 30% of total revenues from migrant workers. The Agreement stipulates that the EU and Ukraine shall make joint endeavours to tackle the root causes of migration, establish an effective against illegal migration while legally employed workers from Ukraine and the EU shall guaranteed equal rights and the need to expand the number of bilateral agreements on employment between Ukraine and the EU Member States is declared as well. The Agreement provides for separate provisions on temporary presence of natural persons for business purposes that allow for employment of “key personnel” as well as for rendering of commercial services under a simplified procedure of stay in the host country. However, liberalisation of access of migrants from Ukraine applies primarily to skilled migration that generally corresponds to the common trend of implementing the EU immigration policy today. However, the issue of access to the national labour markets of the main part of labour migrants from Ukraine still remains in the domain of bilateral relations between Ukraine and the EU host countries.

This article reviews the ability of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement to remain the basic comprehensive document that regulates relations between Ukraine and the EU after Ukraine’s obtaining the status of a candidate country for EU membership. The current role of the Association Agreement has been analysed through the lens of its dynamic character and Ukraine’s obligations under it, including the implementation of a significant part of the EU acquis to Ukraine’s national legal order. Special focus has been given to the fulfilment of obligations under the Agreement and its effectiveness, especially through examples of comparing the potential results vs. the actual applicability of the implemented EU acquis which are listed in the annexes to the Agreement. Suggestions to increase the effectiveness of the implementation of the Agreement have also been made.

The Vilnius Eastern Partnership Summit on 28-29th November 2013 represents a milestone in EU relations not just with respect to the six Eastern Partnership countries (EaP Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova and particularly Ukraine), but also with the EU’s ‘strategic partner’ Russia. The turbulence and numerous speculations regarding expectations about the signature of the EU-Ukraine Association Agreement (comprising a Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement - AA/DCFTA), as well as progress in initialling similar future agreements with Georgia and Moldova, have been escalating before the summit. The association agreementswould bring EaP signatory countries closer to the EU not really closer to EU membership, but closer to the application of various EU norms and standards (takeover of the ‘acquis communautaire’) and - significantly - out of the Russian orbit, for the beginning at least symbolically. The last minute postponement of the EU-Ukraine AA/DCFTA signature announced by Ukraine’s government just one week before the summit represents a serious setback for the EU. Though the EU has no ‘Plan B’ and was stunned after Ukraine’s announcement, life will continue after the summit and new initiatives will have to be started. What are the relevant issues and challenges and what is at stake? This note attempts to evaluate the consequences (economic and otherwise) of alternate decisions following the Vilnius Eastern Partnership Summit, reviews some of the disputed arguments and discusses selected relevant economic issues.

Na podstawie art. 8 TUE Unia Europejska ma budować przestrzeń dobrobytu i dobrego sąsiedztwa. Instrumentem realizacji tego zamierzania jest umowa stowarzyszeniowa. Umowa tego rodzaju obowiązuje tymczasowo również w relacjach UE-Ukraina. Jej istotnym elementem jest budowa przestrzeni wolności, bezpieczeństwa i sprawiedliwości (Tytuł III umowy stowarzyszeniowej). Przestrzeń ta skonstruowana została, analogicznie do unijnej polityki PWBS (art. 67 TFUE), wokół swobody przepływu osób, uwarunkowanej współpracą Ukrainy w zakresie zarządzania granicami, migracji, azylu, a także zwalczania i zapobiegania przestępczości. Współpraca ta w grudniu 2015 r. została pozytywnie oceniona przez Komisję Europejską, a efektem tej pozytywnej oceny jest przedłożona w kwietniu 2016 r. inicjatywa prawodawcza Komisji w sprawie zniesienia wiz dla obywateli Ukrainy. Jeśli inicjatywa ta zostanie uchwalona przez Parlament Europejski, a na to wskazują pozytywne raporty komisji parlamentarnych, oraz przyjęta przez Radę, wówczas zniesiony zostanie obowiązek posiadania wiz, jeśli chodzi o pobyty krótkie, tj. do 90 dni. Należy jednak pamiętać, iż zmiana ta nie została powiązania w żaden sposób z prawem do podejmowania pracy przez obywateli Ukrainy w państwach członkowskich UE. Zgodnie z art. 18 umowy stowarzyszeniowej zagadnienie podejmowania pracy jest przedmiotem umów dwustronnych między państwem członkowskim a Ukrainą i prawa krajowego państw członkowskich. Zniesienie wiz dla obywateli Ukrainy stanowi jednocześnie, w świetle statystyk Komisji Europejskiej, największe wyzwanie organizacyjne dla polskich organów władzy państwowej odpowiedzialnych za kontrolę granic oraz imigrację – granica polsko-ukraińska jest najczęściej przekraczanym odcinkiem lądowej granicy wschodniej UE. Tylko w pierwszej połowie 2015 r. została przekroczona 4,7 mln razy.

In accordance with Article 8 of the Treaty on the European Union the EU shall establish an area of prosperity and good neighbourhood. An association agreement is one of instruments used to achieve this goal. Such an agreement is applied provisionally in relation between the EU and Ukraine. The area of freedom, security and justice (Title II of the Association Agreement) is an important part of this agreement. The area is constructed in the same way like the European Union policy based on the Article 67 of the Treaty on functioning of the European Union, to establish the free movement of persons but in conjunction with the cooperation between the EU and Ukraine with respect to external border controls, asylum, immigration and the prevention and combating of crime. The European Commission gave a positive assessment of the cooperation in December 2015, confi rming that Ukraine successfully met all benchmarks under the Visa Liberalisation Action Plan from 2010. In April 2016 the European Commission proposed to the Council of the European Union and the European Parliament to lift visa requirements for the citizens of Ukraine. The above mentioned amendment does not mean that the citizens of Ukraine will have the right to work in the EU. In accordance with Article 18 of the Association Agreement the mobility of workers is a subject to the legislation in the Member. The Visa Liberalisation will also mean a great challenge for the Polish border and migration administration. The Polish-Ukrainian border section remained by far the busiest section of the EU eastern land border, with an increase of 15.5% during January–June 2015 compared with the first half of 2014.
