    The Eastern Partnership program includes Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova,
    Belarus, Armenia and Azerbaijan. The primary goal of the program is

    issues between the European Union and its eastern neighbors.

    especially our Russian neighbors -- the EU Neighborhood Policy is
    not targeted against anyone," Steinmeier said, adding that Germany
    wants good cooperation not only with its neighbors, but with the
    "neighbors of our neighbors" as well.

    On Thursday, the German parliament will hold final hearings on
    association agreements between the European Union and Ukraine,
    Moldova and Georgia as part of the Eastern Partnership.

    In January, Brussels agreed to boost practical and political support
    to Ukraine and other Eastern Partnership countries.

    then-President Viktor Yanukovych's decision not to sign the EU
    association deal sparked weeks-long riots, resulting in a coup and
    his subsequent flight to Russia. The current Ukrainian government
    has signed and ratified the agreement.

    in an uncontrolled stream of duty-free goods from the European Union
    to the Russian market that would negatively affect Russia's economic
    interests.
