Stronger together: Welcome Ukraine

Ukraine joins us at a challenging moment in its history. The Russian war of aggression has inflicted devastating human suffering and caused environmental damage, the impacts of which will persist long after the fighting ends.

This is more than an institutional milestone. As Moldova and Ukraine are given the green light to start accession negotiations with the EU, our cooperation is a small but concrete contribution towards a shared European commitment to strengthen peace, security and prosperity across our continent.
