lpv:translated text	"Madam President, the ALDE Group, too, considers it vital that we arrive at a situation in which Ukraine and the European Union work more closely together, so in principle, we favour an association agreement – but an association agreement alone, which is not considered to be a first step to anything else such as membership. Let us be honest: the due process of law is also vital in any association agreement with Ukraine, and I agree with the High Representative that the prosecution of Ms Tymoshenko was not, let me say, an example of European thinking and acting. We must be clear what it is we are asking Ukraine explicitly to do now; we must be very clear. I have heard that a meeting is foreseen between President Barroso and President Yanukovych, at which I think the High Representative will also be present. Is that meeting still on the agenda, and if so, what will the Ukrainian President be asked to do? Will it be to change the law under which Ms Tymoshenko was sentenced? Or an appeal, and if so under what conditions? Or a pardon? What are we going to ask for and in what timeframe? I agree that we should negotiate further, but we should also be clear as to what will be done if the association agreement is ready but the Tymoshenko case has not been resolved. I await an answer."@en1
