А. като има предвид, че Украйна е съседна страна със стратегическо значение за ЕС и представлява естествен „мост”, който свързва ЕС с Русия и Централна Азия; като има предвид, че големината, ресурсите на територията, населението и географското разположение на Украйна й придават характерно положение в Европа и я правят определящ регионален фактор,
A. whereas Ukraine is a neighbour of strategic importance to the EU and the natural "bridge" connecting the EU with Russia and Central Asia; whereas its size, the resources of its territory and population and its geographical location give Ukraine a distinctive position in Europe and make it a determinant regional actor,
Б. като има предвид, че след разширяването от 2004 г. ЕС се превърна в най-големия търговски партньор на Украйна, тъй като присъединяването към ЕС на страни, които имат обща граница с Украйна, засили търговските й връзки с ЕС и отвори нови възможности за регионална търговия, промишлено сътрудничество и икономически растеж,
B. whereas, after the 2004 enlargement, the EU became the biggest trade partner of Ukraine; whereas the accession to the EU of countries having a common border with Ukraine has strengthened its commercial links with the EU and opened up new opportunities for regional trade, industrial cooperation and economic growth,
В. като има предвид, че една от основните цели на Парламента по отношение на външната политика е да се засилва и насърчава Европейската политика на добросъседство (ЕПД), чиято цел е да подкрепя развитието на демокрацията и пазарната икономика в страните, съседки на ЕС, както и да засили политическите и икономическите им връзки с ЕС и държавите-членки,
C. whereas one of Parliament's main objectives as far as foreign policy is concerned is to enhance and foster the ENP, which aims at supporting the development of democracy and the market economy in the EU’s neighbouring countries and the strengthening of their political and economic relations with the EU and its Members States,
Г. като има предвид, че за да се разработи ефективна политика на съседство, трябва да се даде предимство на многостранните отношения и следователно бъдещото споразумение за свободна търговия ще бъде основополагащ елемент на новото разширено споразумение, за което започнаха преговори на 5 март 2007 г.,
D. whereas, in order to develop an effective neighbourhood policy, priority must be given to multilateralism, and therefore the future free-trade agreement (FTA) will be a core element of the NEA on which negotiations started on 5 March 2007,
Д като има предвид, че присъединяването на Украйна към Световната търговска организация (СТО) и ратифицирането на акта от Украинския парламент е необходимото предварително условие, за да се даде възможност на страната да започне преговори за зона за свободна търговия с ЕС в рамките на новото разширено споразумение с цел възможно най-голямо приближаване на Украйна до икономиката на ЕС и като цяло за подобряване на търговските и икономически резултати на Украйна,
E. whereas WTO accession of Ukraine, and its ratification by Ukraine's Parliament, is the necessary precondition for enabling the country to start negotiations for a free-trade area with the EU within the framework of the NEA with a view to bringing Ukraine's economy as close as possible to the EU economy and more generally to enhance Ukraine's commercial and economic performance,
