Acceptance of Poland to the cluster of countries forming the European Union contributed, first of all in the formal sphere, to certain changes in Polish-Ukrainian intercourse. About the beginning of the collaboration of Poland with Ukraine one can speak from the moment of announcing results of the referendum in December 1991 when the Ukrainian society supported separation from the USSR. It is necessary to underline that on the 2nd December 1991 Poland as the first state in the world acknowledged the independence of Ukraine. It was meaningful for the Polish minority in Ukraine and Ukrainians in Poland. The enlargement of the EU on the 1st May 2004 meant for Ukraine, first of all, sealing the border with Poland. European Commission in the co-ordination with Kiev prepared the plan of action of the Union “policy of the neighbourhood”, but Ukraine awaited the better offer, comparable with the offer given to the states created after the division of Yugoslavia which (like Croatia) has a real perspective of the EU accession. In The West nobody doubted the European character of Ukraine. Nevertheless, this state is too large and too weakly developed politically and economically so that the Union, which at that time tackled with own problems, could integrate with Ukraine easily. Poland became here a specific buffer and over time, a mediator between Ukraine and the European Union.
