In light of Ukraine's renewed reform drive the European Union and other countries should step up and show their support to sustain the enthusiasm of the Ukrainian leaders of change in face of serious challenges and difficulties they will face when trying to reform their state, their economy and overcome crippling corruption in the country.
The panel seeks to answer the questions: How can the European Union, the V4 countries and Georgia help in this process based on their knowledge about Ukraine’s needs? How can the V4 contribute to the enhancement of a common European Ukraine strategy? In what direction the Ukrainian economy can be and should be transformed? Where Georgia can do more and what experience it can share of dealing with Russia, territorial loss and economic transformation?
