During the meeting, the parties discussed the acceleration of military assistance to Ukraine, possible ways to counter Russian propaganda in Europe and touched upon the issue of Ukraine's European integration. The Head of State also thanked the European Parliament for its significant support for Ukraine
Thank you for your visit and for the significant support of the members of the European Parliament throughout the years of Russia's war against Ukraine, as well as for the significant resolutions in support of Ukraine and Ukrainians. Your visit is a very important signal to our people and to the world that Ukraine is part of Europe, and that Europe realizes that Ukraine is a protective shield for our common values.
The interlocutors paid special attention to Ukraine's European integration. Volodymyr Zelenskyy emphasized the need to start the negotiation process during the Belgian presidency of the EU Council in June this year.
Ukraine has fulfilled all four recommendations of the European Commission set out in the Annual Enlargement Package. All important laws have been voted on, which is not an easy task during a full-scale war. However, Ukraine is determined to maintain a high pace of integration into the European Union, as it is a foreign policy priority of our country, as well as an integral part of the security of Ukraine and the entire European space.
The parties also exchanged views on the impact and possible ways to counter Russian propaganda in Europe, as well as all types of modern hybrid attacks actively used by the Russian Federation against the democratic world.
