The President of the European Parliament, Roberta Metsola, and the Speaker of the Verkhovna Rada Ruslan Stefanchuk attended the first session of the Parliamentary Committee of the Ukraine-EU Association.
Roberta Metsola stated that Ukraine's place is in the European family, and now is the time when Ukraine should receive the status of a candidate for accession to the European Union.
Committee co-chair Vadym Halaichuk stressed that Ukrainians pay a high price for their desire to join the European Union. Support for Ukraine's accession to the EU is currently the highest in Ukraine - over 90%.
