As soon as possible the European Commission should publish a report on the progress of Ukraine and Moldova on the path to European integration, reminds Charles Michel.
The leaders of the EU countries may discuss the prospect of starting negotiations on the accession of Ukraine and Moldova to the European community at the winter summit. About that said President of the European Council Charles Michel during his visit to Moldova on Tuesday, March 28.
The head of the European Council met with Moldovan President Maia Sandu in Chisinau. At a joint press conference, he recalled that soon the European Commission should publish a report on the progress of Ukraine and Moldova on the path to European integration. And after receiving the results, it will be clear when the accession negotiations of the two candidate countries to the EU can begin.
“Based on this report, I intend to raise the issue of starting negotiations with all three countries (these are Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia – ed.) on their accession to the EU. Perhaps, the issue of starting negotiations with accession of Moldova and Ukraine to the European Union will be considered at the summit in December,” said Michel.
As you know, on June 23, 2022, Ukraine and Moldova received the status of candidates for EU membership. At the same time, Georgia was denied this status.
Recall that President Volodymyr Zelensky said that this year it is time to start negotiations on Ukraine’s accession to the European Union.
In turn, the Cabinet of Ministers adopted a resolution on the self-audit of the law for its compliance with European standards.
