Europe opens up to Zelensky: historic Yes from the EU to Ukraine even if Kiev's entry will take years

Historic decision of European Council yesterday in Brussels which gave the green light to negotiations for entry into the Ue ofUkraine and Moldova, after the Hungarian sovereignist leader Viktor Orban he gave up on vetoing and was absent at the time of the vote. He obviously rejoices Zelensky to which the Yes of the European Council brings some light back to its star, which has darkened in recent months due to the failure of the Ukrainian military counter-offensive against the Russia and also for delays in weapons support and funding from the West. “This is a victory for Ukraine and a victory for all of Europe – commented the Ukrainian President – ​​A victory that motivates, inspires and strengthens”. The President of the EU, Ursula, immediately echoed this From the Leyen: “A strategic decision and a day that will remain engraved in the history of our Union. We are proud to have kept our promises and happy for our partners." The Italian Prime Minister was also satisfied Giorgia Meloni: “This is a result of significant value for the EU and for Italy, which came as a result of a complex negotiation in which our nation played a leading role in actively supporting both the Eastern Trio countries and Bosnia and Herzegovina and the countries of the Western Balkans”.

Naturally, Kiev's accession to the EU is not for tomorrow and close negotiations will be needed from defense to agriculture but the road is open. The European Council also put on the table new financial aid for Ukraine amounting to 50 billion and recognized the Georgia candidate status.
