The presidential elections in the United States of America will not affect the process of Ukraine's future membership in the European Union.
This was stated by Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration of Ukraine Olga Stefanishyna in an interview with the host of the information telethon Unified News Vadym Karpyak.
Will the US elections affect Ukraine's accession to the EU
— I feel quite confident about the upcoming elections in the United States. I don’t see how they can influence the process of Ukraine’s membership in the European Union. They also cannot influence the rollback of those decisions that were made at the NATO Summit, because implementation does not require consensus of the allies, — Olga Stefanishina states.
According to the Deputy Prime Minister, Congress will not be ready to reverse this course under any US president.
