Brussels, Sept. 17 (LaPresse) – “I am pleased to welcome today the President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, to Ukraine for her fourth visit during these years of war. We discussed key areas of cooperation between Ukraine and European institutions: support for Ukraine’s EU accession negotiations and the importance of opening the first cluster as soon as possible; sanctions against Russia and the adoption of the 19th EU sanctions package; Russian assets; and social issues, including building shelters for schools and Europe’s support for our free meals program for all Ukrainian students. We count on the EU’s concrete involvement in these matters. We welcome the opening of the European Parliament Office in Ukraine, which will strengthen coordination between our parliament and the European Parliament. Thank you for all your support. Thanks to everyone who is helping us.”
This is what Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky wrote on X.
