Whereas:
(1)
The Association Agreement between the European Union and the European Atomic Energy Community and their Member States, of the one part, and Ukraine, of the other part, (the ‘Association Agreement’) entered into force on 1 September 2017.
(2)
Article 64(1) of the Association Agreement provides that Ukraine is to approximate its sanitary and phytosanitary and animal welfare legislation to that of the Union as set out in Annex V to Chapter 4 of the Association Agreement.
(3)
Ukraine has committed to submit a comprehensive strategy in the form of a list of the Union legislation regarding sanitary and phytosanitary measures and animal welfare (the 'List') to which it intends to approximate its domestic legislation. The List is to serve as the reference document for the implementation of Chapter 4 (Sanitary and Phytosanitary Measures) of Title IV (Trade and Trade-related Matters) of the Association Agreement, and it is to be added to Annex V to Chapter 4 of the Association Agreement.

Ukraine submitted the List to the European Commission in October 2018. Based on the List, the Sanitary and Phytosanitary Management Sub-Committee (the ‘SPS Sub‐Committee’) is to adopt a decision modifying Annex V to Chapter 4 of the Association Agreement.
