The parties signed a protocol on introduction of amendments to the agreement on promotion and mutual protection of investments.
Ms Tymoshenko said that she has high hopes for the Czech presidency of the European Union in 2009. "It is very important for us because we know that your country is a friend of Ukraine," she stated, adding that she expects real steps on the signing of an agreement on the creation of a free trade area between Ukraine and the European Union and an agreement on political association with the Union. Mr Topolanek, in turn, confirmed his country's plans to pay particular attention to Ukraine. He noted that issues of the balanced policy in the basins of the Mediterranean and Black Seas would be put on the agenda of the European Union.
