1Ukraine, EU: A Closer Relationship?Fiombonambe Eropeana-Ukraine: Resaka fifanatonana.
2The EU's plan to finalize an Association Agreement with Ukraine in 2009 was made public at the EU-Ukraine Summit in Paris on Sept. 9. The media and bloggers greeted it with mixed reactions.Nambara ampahibemaso tao amin'ny EU-Ukraine Summit tany Paris tamin'ny 9 septambra ny fikasan'ny Fiombonambe Eropeana hanamafy ny Fifanekem-piaraha-miasa miaraka amin'ny Ukraine tamin'ny 2009. Fomba samihafa no nentin'ny haino aman-jery sy ny mpitoraka blaogy maro nandray izany.
3“EU offers reassurance to Ukraine,” read a BBC headline.“Manolotra antoka ho an'i Ukraine ny Fiombonambe Eropeana,” hoy ny lohatenin'ny BBC.
4“EU offers no promises to hopeful Ukraine,” wrote the Irish Times.“Tsy mampanantena na inona na inona an'i Ukraine diso manantena fatratra ny EU,” hoy ny nosoratan'ny Irish Times.
5“EU Makes Positive Noises But Offers Only Vague Deal to Ukraine,” stated Deutsche Welle.“Manely honohono tsara lahatra ny EU nefa fifanarahana tsy voafaitra mazava no narosony an'i Ukraine,” hoy ny fanamarihan'ny Deutsche Welle.
6“Nervous EU offers Ukraine hope for the future but no seat at the table,” concluded The Times.“Manome fanantenana ny amin'ny hoavy ho an'i Ukraine ny EU nefa tsy misy miatso azy ambony latabatra,” hoy ny The Times mamàrana.
7The negative part of the assessment of the Summit's results stems from the EU's decision not to include the term “membership perspective” in the description of Ukraine's future relationship with the EU - a phrase, which, according to Vitaly of The 8th Circle, “would identify Ukraine's EU aspirations as something more than a hypothetical idea”:Ny tombana amin'ny ampahany ratsy amin'ny vokatry ny fohaonambe dia avy amin'ny fanapaha-kevitry ny EU ny tsy hampiditra ny teny hoe “vinavinam-pirotsahana” ao amin'ny fanoritsoritana ny fifandraisana hisy eo amin'i Ukraine sy ny EU - fehezanteny iray, raha araka ny hevitr'i Vitaly avy ao amin'ny The 8th Circle, mamaritra tsara ny hetaheta ho eropeana ananan'i Ukraine ho toy ny zavatra iray hafa mihitsy miohatra amin'ny hoe hevi-dravina fotsiny:
8[…] To myself, I thought that this is not surprising.[…] Raha amiko manokana dia tsy mahagaga izany.
9With the EU still digesting the 2004 and 2007 enlargement waves, experiencing the Romania-Bulgaria fatigue syndrome, and dealing with an internal problem caused by Ireland's vote against the Lisbon constitution treaty, any talk of further enlargement perspective for other states, especially those like Ukraine with 46 million citizens or Turkey with 70 million, must be nauseating.Miaraka amin'ny Fiombonambe Eropeana mbola mitsakotsako sy mandevona ny onjam-pivelarana tamin'ny 2004 sy 2007, tratran'ny soritr'aretin'ny faharerahana Romania-Bolgaria, ary mila mamaha ny olana nateraky ny fifidianan'i Irlande manohitra ny “Fifanarahan'i Lisbon constitution“, tsy maintsy hampihaoka handoa ny hiresahana momba ny “ enlargement vina” ho an'ny firenen-kafa, indrindra ireo tahaka an'i Ukraine manana vahoaka be 46 tapitrisa na i Tiorkia manana vahoaka 70 tapitrisa.
10Although, smaller states, like Serbia with a population of 7 million, have a more realistic perspective as we have recently learned from Mr. Barroso […].Nefa ny firenena kelikely, toa an-dry Serbia miaraka misy mponina 7 tapitrisa, dia manana vina mifototra tsara amin'ny zava-misy kokoa tahaka ny nitateran'i Mr. Barroso azy ho antsika vao tsy ela akory izay[…].
11The 8th Circle points at another alleged reason for deciding against Ukraine's “European perspective” - the ongoing political crisis in Ukraine - but argues that “what Ukraine is going through right now SHARES quite a bit with the European values”:Ny The 8th Circle koa dia manondro antony hafa andavana ny Vina eropeana momba an'i Ukraine - ny krizy politika any Ukraine ankehitriny - nefa koa manohana fa ny zavatra lalovan'ny Ukraine amin'izao fotoana izao dia misy ifandraisany kely ihany amin'ny valeurs Eropeana:
12[…] Furthermore it is puzzling why the withdrawal of one section from the ruling coalition, and the consequent potential for a pre-term election is NOT an example of shared values between the EU and Ukraine.[…] Fanampin'izany, tsy dia mivotra mivaingana loatra ny hoe fa maninona ny fisintahan'ny iray amin'ireo ao anatin'ny fifanekena, sy ny ho vokatry ny fanaovana fifidianana alohan'ny fotoana no TSY ho ohatra iray amin'ny valeurs itovizan'ny Ukraine sy ny IE.
13As a democracy with competitive, free and fair elections, Ukraine is attempting to find an institutional solution that will accommodate all of its political actors.Amin'ny maha demokrasia miaraka amina fifaninanana azy , malalaka sy marina, miezaka ny hahita vahaolana mifanaraka amin'ny lalàna izay hahafa-po ny mpandray anjara rehetra amin'ny politika i Ukraine.
14It is a democratic process through which every democratic state must pass through if it is to move beyond the adjective - “transitional.”Ity dia processus demokratika tsy maintsy lalovan'ny firenena demokratika rehetra, raha te-hihoatra ny vala famaritan'ny mpamari-toetra “tetezamita” izy.
15Well consolidated democracies, such as Canada and Japan are currently going through the same coalition formation/pre-term election process, and Belgium in the past year took 196 days to form a coalition, which almost beat their 1977 record of 208 days. […]Ny demokrasia mafy orina, toa ny any Kanada sy Japana amin'izao fotoana dia samy mandalo izany fiaraha-mitantana/fifidianana alohan'ny fotoana izan, ary Belzika tamin'ny taon-dasa dia nandany 196 andro mba handrafetana fifanekem-piaraha-mitantana, ary efa tany amin'ny 208 andro mihitsy aza tamin'ny 1977 . […]
16J Clive Matthews of Nosemonkey's EUtopia thinks that the EU should adopt a more practical approach to dealing with Ukraine:J Clive Matthews avy amin'ny Nosemonkey's EUtopia dia mieritreritra fa tokony hampiasa fomba fifanantonana “pratique” kokoa ny EU amin'ny fifampiresahany amin'i Ukraine:
17[…] So Ukraine's less welcome than tiny Albania and Macedonia?[…] Tsy mba sahala amin'ireo firenena kely Albania sy Masedonia ve fa mpisolantsolana i Ukraine?
18Less welcome than Serbia, a country built on a genocidal civil war and still in dispute with much of the EU over the status of Kosovo?Zaza tsy niriana raha oharina amin'i Serbia, firenena natsangana tamina ady sivily sy fandringanana ary mbola ao anatina fifamaliana amin'ny EU momba ny fijoroan'i Kosovo?
19Yeah, cheers for that.Ie, fisaorana be dia be ho an'izany.
20Really encouraging.Tena mampahery be.
21Nice one.Zavatra milay.
22The promise of future EU membership can be a force for good, inspiring positive shifts towards greater democratic freedoms.Mety ho loharano hampandroso any amina fahafahana demokratika lehibe kokoa sy hanamafy ny fananana iombonana ny fanomezan-toky amin'ny fidirana ao amin'ny EU.
23But the promise has to be made.Nefa mila atao ilay fanomezan-toky.
24Taking a carrot and stick approach is a tried-and-tested method for getting people to do what you want - and that goes for countries too.Fomba efa natao sy nahitam-bokatra ho fampanekena ny olona ny fampiasana ny teknikan'ny karaoty sy tsora-kazo mba hahazoana izay andrasan'ny tena aminy - ary mandaitra amin'ny firenena ihany koa io.
25Yet in the case of Ukraine, the EU's carrot would appear to be largely imaginary - while at the same time, Ukrainians know that Russia has both stick and carrot, and isn't afraid to use either.Fa amin'ny resaka Ukraine, toa sarisary fotsiny ny karaoty ambaran'ny EU - mandritra izay fotoana izay, fantatry ny Ukraniana fa i Rosia dia sady manana hazo no manana karaoty, ary tsy matahotra ny mampiasa izany.
26Taras of Ukrainiana takes a harsh stance on the performance of Ukraine's politicians:Taras avy ao amin'ny Ukrainiana dia mandray fomba fijery masiatsiaka raha miresaka ny fahombiazan'ny mpanao pôlitika Ukrainiana:
27[…] Sure, Euro-beggars can't be Euro-choosers.[…] Azo antoka fa tsy ho mpifidy Euro[Euro-choosers] ny mpangataka Euro [Euro-beggars].
28Especially if you come to the negotiation table in such a grotesque disarray.Indrindra raha tonga miaraka amina zavatra misavoritaka be toy izany hiresaka ambony latabatra hanao adivarotra ianao.
29In the meantime, let our oligarchs buy a little more of Monaco.Mandritra izany, avelao ny oligargue-n-tsika mba hividy ampahany kely amin'ny Monaco.
30Maybe then we'll have our chance to join the EU? […]Angamba mba mety hahazo anjara hiditra ho ao amin'ny UE koa isika avy eo? […]
31Part of the passage above is actually a reaction to Victor Yushchenko's seemingly awkward and inappropriately positive response to what Nicolas Sarkozy reportedly said on behalf of the EU at the end of the Summit.Misy ampahany amin'ny hafatra eto ambony no valin-kafatra mitavozavoza sy tsy amin'ny fotoanany, amin'ny fomba fijery miabo avy amin'i Victor Yushchenko amin'izay teny nambàran'i Nicolas Sarkozy amin'ny anaran'ny EU tany ampamaranana ny Fihaonambe.
32Ukrainiana posted a news report broadcast by one of Ukrainian TV stations and provided an English translation of the Ukrainian voiceover translation of Sarkozy's words:Namoaka horonantsary fanadihadiana nataon'ny iray amin'ireo fahitalavitra Okrainiana i Ukrainiana ary nanome dikanteny Anglisy an'ilay feo lafika Okrainiana mandika ny tenin'i Sarkozy:
33French President Nicolas Sarkozy: This association agreement [to be signed in 2009] does not close any paths, nor does it open any paths.Filoha frantsay Nicolas Sarkozy: Ity fifanekem-piaraha-miasa ity [hosoniavina amin'ny 2009] tsy manidy izay mbola mety ho làlana hafa, na koa manokatra hafa.
34That's all we could give.Izay ihany no azonay lazaina.
35Ukrainian President Viktor Yushchenko: We very much appreciate what we reached today.Filoha Ukrainiana Viktor Yushchenko: Tena nahafa-po be anay ny zavatra azonay androany.
36It turns out, however, that Sarkozy's remark has been mistranslated, and the incorrect translation was then featured prominently in the Ukrainian and a few Western media outlets (more about it - here).Hay nefa, na teo aza izay rehetra izany, diso ny fandikana ny fanamarihan'i Sarkozy, ary iny fandikana diso iny avy eo no naelin'ny mpampahalala vaovao Okrainiana sy ireo mpampahalala vaovao Tandrefana sasany ( ato ny fanazavana bebe kokoa momba an'io).
37The original statement - “[…] cet accord d'association ne ferme aucune piste, que même il en ouvre” - apparently translates as “[…] this association agreement does not close any route, it even opens some.”Ny loharanon'ny fanambàrana - “[…] cet accord d'association ne ferme aucune piste, que même il en ouvre” - midika hoe “[…] tsy manapaka làlana ity fifanekena fifanaraham-piaraha-miasa ity, fa manokatra ny sasany kosa aza.”
38“Well, let's see what that means in practical terms,” concludes Ukrainiana after posting a correction.“Andao ary hojerena ny dikan'izany araka izay tena tokony ho izy” , hoy Ukrainiana mamarana rehefa avy namoaka fanitsiana.
39The 8th Circle believes that the EU should “stay engaged with its Eastern Neighborhood” and that the Polish-Swedish Eastern Partnership project might be “a good small step in that direction.”Mino ny The 8th Circle fa tokony hijanona hifamatotra foana amin'ireo Tatsinanana mpifanolo-bodirindrina aminy ny EU ary ny Fiaraha-miasan'ny samy Tatsinanana, vivavinan'ny Poloney sy Soisa, dia mety ho dingana iray ho amin'izany zotra izany.
40Here is why:Ity ny antony:
41[…] This partnership more than anything will show that the EU retains its leadership role in Europe by staying actively engaged with “neighborhood countries” that are at various stages of democratic and economic development. […][…] Ity fiaraha-miasa ity dia haneho mihoatra noho ny zavatra rehetra fa mitazona foana ny maha mpialoha làlana azy eo anatrehan'ireo “firenena mpifanolo-bodirindrina” aminy ny UE, izay ahitàna taratra fahasamihafana maro karazana eo amin'ny atao hoe fandrosoana demokratika sy ara-toekarena. […]
42Note that the question is not about making a promise of membership or candidateship - like the one made by Barroso vis-a-vis Serbia - rather it is about signaling to politicians in Kyiv and the Ukrainian population that if they want to and if they reform accordingly, then the EU is a viable option. […]Mariho koa fa ny resaka eto tsy hoe momba ny fampanantenana fandraisana ho mpikambana na ho mpilatsaka ho mpikambana - toy ilay iray izay nataon'i Barroso manoloana an'i Serbia - fa kosa momba ny fanairana ireo mpanao pôlitika ao Kyiv sy ny valalabemandry Okrainiana fa hoe raha tian'izy ireo ary manao ny fanovàna tena andrasana aminy izy ireo, dia hitondra aina ho amin'ny hoavy ny UE.
