“Our state, our people deserve it, and the European Union also needs this step – not just politically,” said Zelenskyj in his daily video address on Thursday. The EU also draws its strength from not leaving anyone outside the door who believes in European values. Kiev is counting on the actual accession negotiations to begin in June.

Interrupted by air alarm
EU members are expected to decide on whether to start talks after the European elections in June. In his message, Zelensky also thanked the President of the European Parliament Roberta Metsola, who traveled to Kiev on Thursday, Europe Day, to demonstrate her support for the country. He said he talked to her about political and military aid for Ukraine.
According to Zelensky, the fact that the joint press conference had to be interrupted by an air alert caused by Russia shows that Moscow, in contrast to Brussels, only has force to offer. He indicated that Russia was preparing further military advances. But Ukraine will respond, he announced.
