"Our path to membership must not take decades," he told his national parliament in Kyiv as the President of the EU Commission, Ursula Von der Leyen, addressed it by video-link today.Ukrainian politicians clapped in unison as a huge EU flag was brought into the assembly hall by three servicemen from the National Guard dressed in ceremonial uniforms.
Ms von der Leyen underlined the progress made by the country in its path towards EU membership while it defends itself against Russia's 24 February invasion. Europe will do everything in our power to help Ukraine win this war.— Ursula von der Leyen July 1, 2022 Ms Von der Leyen's warm address heaped praise on Ukraine's parliament and President Volodymyr Zelensky's government for their swift and successful push to become candidates for EU membership.
Hes right as its wont be around for too long more
Has he asked for more Billions in the last 5 minutes..? Explain this.. 200 CCTV camera's pick up nothing..? The Shopping Centre has been closed for the last 4 months..?
“I want it all and I want it now”
Ursula von der lying is prime example of corruption EU. She's a disgrace to her family and friends. She has blood on her own hands
The single most politically corrupt land mass on the European continent (and that's saying something!) wants in.....quick Obviously we must accommodate....quick!
None of these 'entities' will last much longer. The end is very close. For all those maniacs. Will see then soon whose asses will rte and others msm criminals lick.
Ukraine can’t join until war is over and even then there are specific requirements. It takes years, no months.
It is odd that the candidate country, Ukraine, should try to dictate the terms of membership.
Unless they are allowed join NATO it don't mean sh*t
It really shows the EU for what they are,a man that banned political opposition,banned Russian language long before invasion, has Nazi battalions in his army and corruption a way of life for its politicians that would put fiannafailparty to shame .Downfall of the EU
PaulAqua2 Ukraine is a non country, as Nigel once said about Belgium. Historically, through the ages, she belonged to Russia and Poland. It's paper existence was formed as post-soviet state in 1991. Just 32 years ago.
This is fucking madness. Six months ago Ukraine were apparently a shower of racist, corrupt, anti-vax nazis. Then Russia invades them and now they're apparently good guys & getting fast-tracked for EU membership? This is seriously dodgy. stinks corruption
I see the EU are supporting nazis now
Does he ever take off that t-shirt
Maybe try to look after your own first!
Putin should get the Nobel Peace Prize. In a short few months he made one of the most corrupt, bigoted and fascist countries on the planet worthy of EU membership.
What a turn around in 2 years. It's a miracle.
One of the most corrupt nations in the world joining the EU…. They’ll fit in well.
I suppose it’s up to him really. Or does he want exceptions made because he continues to fight against Putin. Let him understand that his war is not Europe’s war. He is fighting it because Putin invaded his country.
Should the EU be admitting countries where the ruling party has banned all its opposition?
Ukraine is being liberated by Putin.....
Not to be a downer but there was a good reason they were not accepted before this. Wife of a Ukrainian member of parliament was caught crossing the border to Hungary
Slight 'get rid of curruption' Clause there issued by yer one from the EU... May delay things slightly..
Presumably Johnson will be telling him not to and sending them a bus?
Quite the little dictator This won't end well, for sure
EU is in for a very cold winter.
Not up to him
