The present paper investigates opportunities and threats of Ukrainian Green economy integration into European Green Deal policy initiatives in the context of Association Agreement between Ukraine and EU. As environmental aspects are the key part of socio-economic convergence between Ukraine and EU, European Green Deal will be a determinant of Ukrainian Green economy integration into European one. The paper presents research of environmental aspects in Association Agreement as well as Ukrainian Ukraine's involvement in the process of achieving climate-neutral Europe. The set of mechanisms is proposed to improve the implementation of the Association Agreement under the current conditions. Paper also highlights priorities of Ukrainian Green economy integration into European environmental policy.
