The purpose of the conference is to commemorate two years anniversary of the Euromaidan but at the same time discuss Ukrainian European future and, more broadly, the future of the Eastern Partnership and EU-Russia relations as well. Since the signing of Minsk II accords and the breakout of the refugee crisis, Europe is gradually losing interest in Ukraine. Though, the country is still under huge military pressure from Russia.

Moreover, it is trying to push through needed socio-economic reforms while simultaneously implementing far-reaching administrative, institutional and constitutional amendments stipulated in Minsk accords which are to be fully implemented by the end of year. At the same time, Ukraine has not stepped down from its objective to become a member of Euro-Atlantic integration structures. The stability and prosperity of Ukraine are also crucial for upholding secure EU’s neighbourhood.
