Regarding the opening of clusters. We very much need the position of every country so that there are no blockages. We expect that in June and other summer months we will have progress in this direction. We want to open the first cluster – Fundamentals – in the coming weeks and then work on other clusters
He stated that he counts on the understanding of all Northern European countries.
Sweden fully supports us in this. I expect that all partners will work in the same way with other partners who are skeptical. We hope that during my negotiations in June or over the summer, we will reduce this skepticism and achieve the desired important result for Ukraine
As a reminder
The European Commission will propose opening the first "cluster" of negotiation chapters regarding EU membership for Ukraine and Moldova on June 16.
