Sybiha emphasized that the EU Enlargement Report confirms Ukraine’s significant progress on its European path and its determination to continue reforms despite Russia’s full-scale aggression.

He noted that Ukraine continues comprehensive reforms in the areas of rule of law, anti-corruption, and governance, stating that these steps form the foundation of the country’s democratic and European future. The minister expressed pride that Chapter 31 – “Foreign, Security and Defense Policy,” under the responsibility of the Ukrainian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, received high praise from the EU.

Sybiha added that Ukraine has completed the screening process and is ready to open negotiation clusters, describing this as the next logical step in the process.

“By integrating Ukraine, the EU strengthens its own stability, unity, and resilience. A strong and secure Europe is impossible without Ukraine.”
