Abstract
This chapter explains the import of international asylum norms into Ukrainian legislation, analysing domestic legislators’ discourse on asylum and international organisations’ transfer practices. Lawmakers did not construct asylum as a public policy problem. Instead, in adopting asylum norms, politicians showed that they were democratising and Europeanising Ukraine. The EU position strengthened after the Maidan protests in 2014, the war with Russia, and the introduction of EU conditionality related to the abolishment of visas for Ukrainian tourists (2010–2016). EU monitoring shaped the transfer process across scales. To transfer its norms to Ukraine, UNHCR directly lobbied Ukrainian decision makers, influenced the knowledge and positions of the EU, and benefited from EU conditionality.

Annual bilateral summit meetings between the President of Ukraine and the EU Presidency, the President of the Commission, and the EU’s High Representative. Below this level were annual Cooperation Councils, namely the Association Council, where the Prime Minister of Ukraine and members of the Government met with the High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and members of the Council of the EU and of the European Commission.

Between 2011 and the end of 2015, the Commission produced six VLAP progress reports which indicated a list of measures, which the Ukrainian state should undertake.

The Mission of Ukraine to the European Union was a mediator in this communication. On the one hand, the Mission of Ukraine transmitted information about reforms from Ukraine, namely the Ministry for Foreign Affairs, to the EU, mostly the Commission. On the other hand, it transmitted the European Commission’s expectations to Ukrainian ministries (Interview, representative of the Mission of Ukraine to the EU, 2015). Several representatives of DG Home of the European Commission referred to the requests from the Ukrainian side for clarification of EU demands and advice concerning reforms. During monitoring missions and everyday communication, Ukrainian officials enquired how to implement a reform so that it would conform to EU expectations (Interview, representative of the European Commission, DG Home, 2015).
