Among the issues to be discussed are, of course, the military situation, [and] President Zelenskyy's peace plan, which has received support in the EU. We see delays in providing assistance to Ukraine in the military, economic, financial, humanitarian and energy sectors, etc," Maasikas said. Details: As Maasikas says, Brussels will also discuss Ukraine's progress in working on EU recommendations related to granting candidate status to the EU.

"So, the range of issues is quite extensive," stated the Head of the EU Delegation to Ukraine.

He also noted that the speed of any integration process depends primarily on the actions of the candidate, in particular on how quickly EU legislation is adopted and implemented, and the assessment of Ukraine's progress in implementation is ongoing.
