Details. "And then Ukraine will become a full member of the EU. The amount of work is enormous. At the same time, we see that our European partners are committed to productive cooperation on integration," the Prime Minister says.
According to him, the visit of the President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen in the coming weeks will be a "vivid evidence" of this.
"We expect that together with Ms. von der Leyen more than 10 European Commissioners will arrive in Ukraine to hold intergovernmental consultations. This will not only be an important signal of further support for Ukraine in the war, but will also demonstrate that the EU is open to the negotiation process on Ukraine's accession," Mr. Shmyhal points out.
