EU candidate status will boost Ukraine’s economic growth.

EU candidate status will strengthen Ukraine’s economic growth and send a positive signal to investors, said American Chamber of Commerce President Andy Hunder. He added, “EU candidate status will give a push to a new trajectory of GDP growth while providing a huge morale boost for post-war economic transformation and reform. Moreover, this step sends a positive signal to investors that Ukraine is moving in the right direction,” he told Interfax-Ukraine. He also expressed his confidence in a favorable decision on this status by EU members. Furthermore, Ukraine will make every effort to implement all necessary reforms as soon as possible. In particular, to implement effective judicial reform, the rule of law, and fair justice.
