Following the Ukrainian President’s visit to the White House and Congress, which should be interpreted not least as a sign of the United States’ unwavering support for Ukraine under attack, the EU is now seeking to take a similar step. to make. A summit meeting is scheduled for 3 February between EU Council President Charles Michel and EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and Volodymyr Zelensky.
An EU spokesman told Reuters on Thursday where the summit will take place. There is an existing invitation to Zelenskyj to visit Brussels. But that does not mean that the summit will take place in the Belgian capital.
Emotional speech to the US Congress
Since the outbreak of war on 24 February, Zelenskyy has regularly appeared at EU summits via video conference. On Wednesday, the Ukrainian president met with US President Joe Biden in Washington on his first official trip abroad since the outbreak of war, and delivered an emotional speech to the US Congress.
Zelenskyy, speaking before the US Congress, compared his country’s fight against Russia to the battles of the US military in World War II. “Like the brave American soldiers who held their lines at Christmas 1944 and repulsed Hitler’s forces, brave Ukrainian soldiers are doing the same against Putin’s troops this Christmas.”
