Glad to welcome European Commission President @vonderleyen to Kyiv. Today, on Ukrainian Statehood Day, we are quite rightly devoting considerable attention to our relations with the European Union. We are working to open clusters in Ukraine’s EU accession negotiations. We are now really looking forward to the next European sanctions package – the 21st package – taking effect. We have done a lot to integrate our defense capabilities and production with those of Europe. Today, we also have the first document laying the groundwork for the Drone Deal – a major defense agreement between Ukraine and the European Union. This is a truly historic step in our relations. Going forward, we expect financial support from the EU for our Anti-Ballistic Missile Program. We also discussed today what Ukraine and the European Union need to do together to prepare for winter – energy remains a constant priority. Thank you, Ursula! Thank you to all our friends in Europe!(Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський)
