KIEV, May 20 (RIA Novosti, Anna Vernoslova) - Ukraine's prospective integration into the European Union is mutually beneficial, President Viktor Yushchenko said Saturday.
"Not only Ukraine needs Europe, but Europe needs us too," Yushchenko said on the radio, addressing the country's citizens on the occasion of Europe Day celebrations. "Ukraine may give a new breath to many projects of European significance."
He said Ukraine could help Europe lay new oil and natural gas supply routes from the Caspian region and offer new transit ways.
