He pointed out that finally the parties found a compromise on how to deal with a person from a third country.
Ukraine insisted the agreement should come into force after a three-year deferment, while the EU demanded to shorten it to one year.
As a result, they agreed to make a two-year deferment.
The EU says after it signs a readmission agreement with Ukraine, it will take steps to ink an agreement on simplified visa rules.
