Ukraine has completed the necessary work and is ready to move forward on its path toward membership in the European Union.
President Volodymyr Zelensky said this in an address to the EU Intergovernmental Conference, an Ukrinform correspondent reports.
"What is happening today – the opening of the first cluster in the accession negotiations for Ukraine and Moldova – sends a clear message that Europe’s progress cannot be stopped. We have worked hard to reach this moment," Zelensky said.
The Ukrainian President emphasized that Ukraine and Moldova have taken important steps together in recent years.
"Our neighborhood with Moldova is strong. We support each other and are moving toward the EU together. And we will get there together," he stressed.
