BRUSSELS, Sept 1 (Reuters) – The European Union and Ukraine can do a lot to deepen their existing ties before looking at the country’s possible membership of the bloc, French President Nicolas Sarkozy said on Monday.
“We have lots to do to reinforce ties with Ukraine without possible accession,” Sarkozy told a news conference after an emergency EU summit on the Georgia conflict. (Reporting by Mark John, editing by William Schomberg)
