The European Parliament approved resolution recommending giving Ukraine status of candidate for EU membership

The European Parliament believes that the EU should grant Ukraine the status of a candidate for membership in the EU.

This was stated in the resolution on foreign and EU security and defense policy adopted by MEPs at a plenary session on June 8. 438 parliamentarians voted for the resolution, 65 voted against and another 94 abstained.

The European Parliament recommended that the EU Council agree that the Versailles Declaration recognizes Ukraine’s European aspirations and its application for EU membership, and grant it EU candidate status as a clear political signal of solidarity with the people of Ukraine.
