Peace. Democracy. Solidarity. These values laid the foundation for the EU and still guide us today. 🇪🇺 80 years after the end of #WWII, we reflect on our history and celebrate the birth of a bold vision for a peaceful & united Europe that has led to the EU as we know it today👇

Your dignity honors the bravery of the Ukrainian people. Be strong, be brave, be fearless. You are never alone, dear President @ZelenskyyUa. We will continue working with you for a just and lasting peace.

Ваша гідність вшановує хоробрість українського народу. Будьте сильним, будьте сміливим, будьте безстрашним. Ви ніколи не будете самотнім, дорогий Президенте @ZelenskyyUa. Ми продовжимо працювати з Вами заради справедливого і сталого миру.

Tonight, the Council Europa building is lit up in blue and yellow in solidarity with Ukraine. The EU will continue to #StandWithUkraine and support a comprehensive, just and lasting peace.
