There is no “no rapid procedure for joining the EU”Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte recalled Thursday, March 10 in Versailles (Yvelines), while Ukraine submitted an application in the hope of joining “without delay” the Block of Twenty-Seven.
“Ukraine’s EU membership is a long-term issue, if it really is”he added, arriving for the European summit near Paris, which intends to reaffirm European support for the country attacked by Russia and give it a prospect of rapprochement with Europe in the long term.
We will reaffirm that “we want to work intensively with Ukraine, which we are already doing, regardless of the prospects of a membership application”he specified.
