The Maidan Revolution changed Ukraine’s future forever.

10 years later, on this day of Dignity and Freedom, we stand proudly with Ukraine on the verge of EU accession negotiations.

As Ukraine defends our values, for every missile Russia launches, our support grows stronger 🇪🇺🇺🇦

[Dmytro Kuleba @DmytroKuleba]

To those with short memories:

Between 2014 and 2022, Ukraine held about 200 rounds of talks with Russia.

During this period, 20 cease-fire agreements were reached, all of which were quickly violated by Russia.

None of the 200 rounds of talks or the 20 ceasefires have prevented Putin from launching a brutal all-out invasion of Ukraine on February 24th, 2022.

Those who argue that Ukraine should negotiate with Russia now are either uninformed or misled, or they side with Russia and want Putin to take a pause before an even larger aggression.

We should not and will not fall into this trap.

[EPP Group @EPPGroup]

Today, during a historic visit to the EPP Group, high-ranking representatives of the Greek Catholic Church in Ukraine voiced their people's strong determination to become a member of the EU.

Our MEPs met with His Beatitude Sviatoslav Shevchuk and Bishop Stepan Sus.
