Ukraine’s progress in implementing the reforms required for EU membership is impressive, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has said.
“The speed at which Ukraine is pursuing EU membership (…) is excellent, impressive. It is an achievement-based process and we see with what enthusiasm and intensity Ukraine is reforming and moving rapidly towards EU membership,” the EC chief told reporters in Vilnius.
“I firmly believe that if they continue in the same spirit, they will soon succeed,” she added.
Von der Leyen will take part in a meeting with leaders and partners of the North Atlantic Alliance on the sidelines of the NATO summit in Vilnius.
