European Council President Antonio Costa says EU accession is key for Ukraine’s future, while European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen says it could happen earlier than 2030.
European Council President Antonio Costa has said that Ukraine’s accession to the European Union would be the most important security guarantee for the future of the country.
Costa was speaking at a joint press conference with EU leaders and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Kyiv.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that he hopes the US will continue to support his country.
“We shouldn’t lose unity between Europe and the US,” he said, adding that Ukraine’s potential membership of NATO or the EU would significantly improve its territorial protection.
