She was asked to comment on two reports of the European Commission on the implementation of the respective action plans on visa liberalization by Ukraine and Georgia published on Friday.
The summit in Riga will be an important step in the cooperation with the Eastern Partnership countries, in particular in visa liberalization, Berto said.
According to her, the two reports published on Friday say that the two countries – Ukraine and Georgia – have made significant progress, but there is still much work to be done in a number of areas.
Berto explained that the EC was ready to issue follow-up reports earlier than planned, if the relevant requirements were met.
