Today at the EU Foreign Affairs Council, I shared a new sense of momentum for our common European future. I updated colleagues on the battlefield situation. Ukraine holds the line and the tide is turning. Our long-range sanctions prove effective and expose Russia’s weakness. I thanked the EU for the recent steps on €90 billion loan and the 20th sanctions package. They have sent a powerful signal of Europe’s strength to the world — and to Moscow. We also believe it is time for Europe to step up its role in peace efforts with a single, unified voice, and solve concrete issues. Increased pressure on the aggressor is key to advance peace efforts. Ukraine is ready to make its experience, technology, and equipment the backbone of European security through a Ukraine-EU Drone Deal. Our 90% effectiveness against mass drone attacks can be expanded to protect the entire EU perimeter. We are fully committed to the reforms needed for EU membership and seek to sign the accession agreement in 2027. We are working to open Cluster One on May 26th and other clusters until the end of the Cypriot Presidency. This is a two-way street; recognizing our progress is vital to cementing Ukraine’s place in our common European home.

People mock the EU as “bureaucracy”. But that bureaucracy turned a continent of borders, currencies and wars into a space where 450 million people can travel, pay, call, study and work almost as if it were domestic. That is not boring. That is civilization becoming usable.
