Kyiv is ready to postpone the signing of the association agreement with the EU, Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych has said in an interview with Western reporters.
"If Europe isn’t ready for that because of any reason, or Ukraine is not ready, it means the decision may be conducted later," the Bloomberg news agency quoted Yanukovych as saying.
At the same time, the president said: "The Association Agreement which reflects prospects for Ukraine to join the EU is very important to us."
