After the end of the visit of four European leaders to the Ukrainian capital, an embrace between Emmanuel Macron and Volodymyr Zelensky appeared on social media. If the French seem excited, the Ukrainian looks a little uncomfortable..
captured The end of the press conference of the four European leaders – French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi, Romanian President Klaus Iohannis – and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, held Thursday in Kyiv.
In recent months, the relationship between European leaders and Zelensky has soured. The Ukrainian leader accuses them of not having a strong position with Russia. But on Thursday, from the four countries it received an important support: that Ukraine be granted “immediate” status as an official candidate for EU membership.
“We support immediate four-candidate status for membership“This statute will be accompanied by a guide and will take into account the situation in the Balkans and in the neighbourhood, in particular in Moldova,” said French President Emmanuel Macron.
The French leader also assured Zelensky that “Europe is on your side. It will remain that way as long as necessary.”
