reporting today's verdict has already received a critical response from european union officials with calls for the e.u. to think its relations with ukraine during a bushel reports from brussels there's been a whole stole reaction from the people in europe here the european union's from policy chief catherine ashton says that she's been following the verdict and that the european union says its whole relations with key of as a result of this verdict we've had the e.u. saying is deeply disappointed with the judge's decision the e.u. commission i did there are consequences for by that relations and earlier today the european commission said he hoped for a review of this of this verdict on appeal i mean we've wanted to see changes in ukrainian law so this sort of case contact and again the head of the european parliament regrets the the verdict and he's calling for a review of the case on appeal now ukraine wants to enter the european union has been discussing a free trade agreement and the ukraine president is actually due here in brussels next week to discuss the first steps to joining

amongst the finance ministers but as specially amongst the leaders of the european union nations in terms of understanding that they needed to move a lot faster on this crisis they still need to move much faster and ultimately time is running out because greece is leading the contagion that is going to kill the euro by the end of the year if we don't see positive and rapid action really realistically about action means that greece needs to leave the euro because the problem is we cannot leave citizens of the european union to starve to death because it suits a troika of international lenders but this is a case of a centrally some form of field spirit and we need a different kind of a we need to let the greek school free before this whole thing ends up with actually frankly some form of revolution in greece and i suspect a return of something like the general's bills or the sorts of our polling options that are not on the table june to the intransigence and incompetence of the european union and are going to help the situation earlier or greece is not the only country in the european

a crime by doing that will not be understood and will not be supported across the european union and it's why you ukraine has called this one very very wrong and that you are talking off from the interlude of world economy and international relations things that make of it poses a threat to the previous contract between russia and ukraine and could potentially survive another gas. i think that kira is preparing for changing gears deals and gas agreements you know that economic situation in the ukraine is not very good and mali. gets from russia for transiting gas from. the soviet years is an important source of cash flow for the kremlin budget but also we have to understand that the situation of the market is changing russia is the building guidelines that bypass crane and will be able. to guess from the south region. and also the market all three q four i guess. from the persian gulf is also developing rapidly so in this case i think. be able. to do appeal across them as well as a powerful lever. in our time if you are going to work with us who are to your opinion is always valuable
