Letter From Kiev

Strategic Europe launches a new phase of its Capitals Series exploring how EU foreign policy is viewed by six countries in Europe’s Eastern neighborhood. It asked contributors from each capital to give a candid assessment of the EU’s policies toward their country, with a ranking on a scale from 'miserable' to 'excellent'. In this first feature, the spotlight is on Ukraine.

Author says there is a serious mismatch between the goals and instruments of the EU’s policy toward Ukraine. The EU seems to be missing the point in its relations with Kiev.
