OREANDA-NEWS. October 07, 2010. The EU-Ukraine Business Council met in Brussels. The event was organized with the support of SCM and dedicated to the celebration of Ukraine's Independence and the appointment of Konstantin Yeliseyev as Ukraine's Ambassador to the EU.

Over 250 national politicians and businessmen visited Brussels. SCM was represented at the meeting by Jock Mendoza-Wilson, Director of International and Investor Relations.

"Although the event was rather festive, it played an important role in Ukraine's moving closer to the European Union. First of all, our colleagues from the EU met the new Ukraine's Ambassador to the European Union who will represent Ukraine in the EU and whose actions will largely impact the country's integration to the European Union. Secondly, joint celebration of the Independence Day was another proof that Ukrainians and Europeans have common values and that Ukraine is a European country," said Mr Mendoza-Wilson, commenting on SCM support of the event.
