Seven years have passed since the Revolution of Dignity when hundreds of Ukrainians gave their lives for the European choice. Isn't Europe tired of dodging the issue of Ukraine's membership in the EU for so long? And isn't it time to move from diplomatic avoidances to clear answers, conditions, steps and deadlines? " he asked.
