European Commission officially receives answers from Ukraine to questionnaire on EU membership

BRUSSELS, 11 May 2022, (TON): EC spokesman Eric Mamer said “European Commission has officially received answers from Ukraine to its questionnaire on EU accession and intends to provide its opinion based on the answers of the Ukrainian side as soon as possible.”

He said “the European Commission must now provide its position on the basis of the answers provided by Ukraine. We have officially received them and will provide our position as soon as possible.”

Mamer also confirmed that the EC aims to complete this work in June.

Answering a question about the mechanism of Ukraine’s possible accession to the European Union, Mamer stressed “the EU has a clear accession process, a number of countries are currently going through it, and there are no changes in this sense for other countries that are on the way.”

The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, during her visit to Kiev in April, handed over to Volodymyr Zelensky a questionnaire to start negotiations on joining the European Union.
