We will remind, Ukraine in a few years negotiating with the EU on common aviation area, which would allow Ukrainian and EU airlines to operate freely in the air spaces of the European Union and Ukraine. However, the signing of the agreement is impossible without settlement of the dispute between Britain and Spain over Gibraltar, which became topical after the referendum on withdrawal of Britain from the European Union. Ukraine has no right to make any unilateral decisions on this issue. Question definition the Gibraltar is discussed European and Ukrainian sides, with Jun 2014. At the same time in another part of the agreement was initialed in 2013.
