by alex

Work on the decision to open opening negotiations with the EU was one of the most difficult for the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine Dmitry Kuleba.

About this in The head of the Ukrainian Foreign Ministry said on air with journalist Vadim Karpyak.

— This decision was the most difficult (we are talking about the beginning of Ukraine’s introductory negotiations with the EU, — Ed.), one of the most difficult in my life that I have encountered . And, indeed, at the level of magic, all the factors then came together, — Kuleba stated.

He emphasized that Ukraine needed to work directly with the Hungarians. And part of this work — the first meeting since the beginning of a full-scale war between the Ukrainian minister and his Hungarian counterpart Peter Szijjártó.

In addition, according to Kuleba, it was necessary to work with European leaders and ministers so that “they were as determined as possible not just to fight, but to win”. President Vladimir Zelensky, in particular, did this.

And it was also necessary to work specifically with those European officials who have influence on Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, added the head of Ukrainian diplomacy. They had to not just discuss with him, but influence him.

— And all this had to come together at one point, at one moment. Everyone had to show character, integrity and put the finishing touches on this issue. We put the finishing touches on him. And the speech of the President (Zelensky, — Ed.) — it is one of the shortest but most powerful speeches a president has made since the war began, — added the minister.

Recall that on December 14, the leaders of the European Union at the summit in Brussels approved the opening of negotiations on accession to the EU with Ukraine and Moldova.
