The European Council also confirmed the recognition of European aspirations and Ukraine's choice.
< p> The member countries of the European Union confirmed the recognition of the European aspirations of Ukraine. Now they are awaiting the conclusions of the European Commission on their readiness to grant Ukraine the status of a candidate for EU membership.
This is discussed in their conclusions on the results of the EU summit.
“The European Union supports Ukraine and its people, and the European Council reaffirms the Versailles Declaration, recognizing the European aspirations and the European choice of Ukraine, as stated in the Association Agreement. The European Council reiterates its request to the Commission to provide its opinion in accordance with the provisions of the Treaties,” the website of the European Council says.
As noted, the European Union will continue to provide coordinated political, financial, material and humanitarian support to Ukraine in the war with Russia.
Recall that earlier President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky announced that the conclusion of the European Commission on Ukraine's application for EU membership will be prepared within a few months.
