BRUSSELS (Sputnik) – The Dutch parliament has ratified a European Union-Ukraine association and free trade deal over a year after the majority of Dutch voters rejected the plan that would bring Ukraine closer to the bloc, a Dutch senate official said Tuesday.
The official told RIA Novosti that the number of yes votes in the 75-member upper house was double that of no votes.
The Netherlands' lower-chamber House of Representatives backed the association agreement in an 89-55 vote in February.
