This significant development was announced by European leaders on June 23, 2022, marking a pivotal shift in Ukraine's geopolitical landscape amid ongoing challenges.

Key Highlights​

He articulated that this recognition serves not only as a validation of Ukraine's European aspirations but also as a necessary bolster against ongoing Russian aggression.
  • Solidarity with Moldova and Georgia: Alongside Ukraine, Moldova was granted EU candidate status, and Georgia is also in line to receive the same once certain conditions are met. This collective acknowledgment underscores a broader commitment to a united Europe in the face of external threats.
  • Strengthening Against Russian Aggression: The decision not only enhances Ukraine's standing but also strengthens the EU itself, according to Zelensky. He posited that the candidacy reinforces the unity of European countries against the common adversary of Russian aggression.
