Ukraine has gained full support of all countries present at the sixth Eastern Partnership Summit in Brussels. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a conversation with media representatives on the sidelines of the summit.
"It is very important for us that the Joint Declaration states a few key things on the Associated Trio (Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine), as well as on the security issues - in our region and in Europe in general. It is very important for us that the issue of security is reflected in the declaration. That’s exactly what will happen," the Head of State said.
The President of Ukraine noted that during the talks with all partners he emphasized the threat of escalation on the part of the Russian Federation and the need for an appropriate response if such an escalation occurs.
"Five ways of reacting to possible escalation are being considered. We said that our state does not have five reactions - we will have only one reaction, and we demonstrated it in 2014, when we defended our territory with weapons in hands. But we emphasize once again that we stand for a peaceful settlement of the war in the east of our country," Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
