In the coming days, we will officially initiate with the European Commission the process of assessing Ukrainian legislation for compliance with the EU acquis – the screening process. We are also preparing to work on the negotiation framework for Ukraine – we expect it in the spring.

The First Lady of Ukraine, Olena Zelenska, held a meeting with Peter Gelb, the General Manager of the Metropolitan Opera, and Keri-Lynn Wilson, the leader of the Ukrainian Freedom Orchestra, during their visit to Lviv.

We are preparing for further strengthening air defense – we have already reached agreements on this. The theme of air defense arises in almost every meeting and talk with world leaders. There will be more systems, more protection for the sky.

During a trip to Lviv region, First Lady of Ukraine Olena Zelenska visited the Lviv Medical Postgraduate College.

Opening the meeting, the President said that Ukraine has a decision to open negotiations on joining the European Union, and this is an institutional proof that Ukraine will become a member of the EU.

It is very important for the government to be in constant communication with local governments and for community leaders to understand the current situation, what our entire country is living through, and how important it is to be fully focused on defense and helping people.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy also spoke with the mother of Lieutenant Pavlo Shcherbyna, who was the commander of a separate grenade launcher platoon, participated in the liberation of Kherson, and later fought in the Bakhmut sector. He perished on December 15, 2022.

This is a truly remarkable result for Ukraine and for the whole of Europe. Another step towards Ukraine's full membership in the EU.

After his official visit to Norway, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited the command of the U.S. Army Europe and Africa in Wiesbaden, Germany.

Currently, the program is coordinated on the ground by Deputy Heads of military administrations and regional coordinators.
