Warsaw believes that this decision turns Ukraine away from European integration. \n \nThis was stated by Polish Deputy Prime Minister Jerzy Hausner. In his opinion, the direction of the oil pipeline's operation is one of the components of disputes among the Ukrainian elite regarding Ukraine's further integration. \n \nEarlier, the adviser of the Polish Embassy in Ukraine, Hanna Luchynska-Skawronska, spoke in particular on Channel 5 about her surprise at this decision. However, according to her, Ukrainian government officials have not yet informed their Polish colleagues about the change to the previously adopted decision regarding the joint extension of the oil pipeline to Brody. She also warned that the decision to use the oil pipeline in the reverse direction would undermine foreign partners' trust in the country. \n
