Euro pass

For the lack of knowing exactly where to put this, I figure it political in some way. Anyway, I don't get much Ukrainian news, but does anybody have news on if Ukraine is thinking about or is joining the EU. I know they created their own currency recently, so I would figure this would dampen the thought. Also the whole Russia NATO thingy. Regardless, I want to visit within the next 4 years and would like it if the Europass was opened to Ukraine for railways and flights. Any body have ideas or news on this?

You have to buy a special ticket for Ukraine, that's for sure.

We're in their sights but nothing definite is coming soon.

Interesting, have never heard of it.

Either way, I don't think it will happen. Any train going to Ukraine gets held up for at least a half hour while they check ur passport and stuff. Then you have to spend another 15 min at customs.

fedorowich, do you speak Ukrainian? Most likely you will not be able to find many who speak other languages at the train stations, so I suggest plane.
