+ Meeting with the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Ukraine, Mr. Vitaly Masol

This is a scenario note for Mulroney's meeting with the Chairman of the Council of Ministers of the Ukraine, Vitaly Masol.

Mulroney was advised to register that "Canadians of Ukrainian origin are very interested in assisting their former homeland to develop its very significant resources and industrial potential." Family ties also accounted for the high number of visitor visas issued by Canada's Embassy in Moscow to Ukrainian nationals. This was a key reason Mulroney was establishing a consular presence in Kyiv.
