KYIV. Oct 20 (Interfax-Ukraine) – The Delegation of the EU to Ukraine has launched the UopenEU information project on Twitter, Facebook and VKontakte to publicize the new opportunities that Ukrainian business will be able to exploit after the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Area (DCFTA) between Ukraine and the European Union is launched.

“Look up the UopenEU pages… for interesting and up-to-date information, which could help you in developing your own business on the united European market: comments from Ukrainian and international experts, government officials, EU representatives, businessmen and activists; histories of successful Ukrainian companies that are trading with European countries; startups drawn up and protected under international standards, new rules of real competition, access to public procurement in EU member [states], trade quotas free from competition and the fight for increasing existing ones,” the Delegation of the EU to Ukraine said in a press release.

According to the report, after the DCFTA is launched on January 1, 2016 Ukraine will see changes in every area of trade relations with the EU: from re-equipping production facilities, toughening the requirements on the quality and safety of products, and increased protection of intellectual property, to changes in accounting and reporting.

“The result of the above-mentioned changes would be approaching Ukrainian business to the united European market with over 1.5 billion consumers, with one of the largest buying powers in the world,” the Delegation of the EU to Ukraine said.
