The Belgian capital is the third stop in the Ukrainian President's whirlwind European tour. He visited London on Wednesday afternoon to address Parliament and hold a meeting with Prime Minister Rishi Sunak before crossing the Channel again for a meeting in Paris with Emmanuel Macron and Olaf Scholz. During his trip to Brussels, Zelenskyy delivered a speech to European lawmakers in which he said his country is defending the "European way of life" and focuses on shared values. He later addressed all 27 leaders of the EU to express his "gratitude" for the support given up to now and during a press conference reiterated his call for more weapons, including long-range missiles, and his wish for a fast accession into the EU.

These are the needs we must respond to now. Words are important, but not enough. The European Union is united in supporting Ukraine until our country wins the fight against the Russian aggressor. This was stated by President Volodymyr Zelenskyy during a joint meeting with media representatives together with President of the European Council Charles Michel and President of the European Commission Ursula von der Leyen following a special meeting of the European Council in Brussels. Volodymyr Zelenskyy noted the symbolism of the fact that on the 351st day of the war unleashed by Russia, the Ukrainian national anthem and words of support for our country, which is fighting for its independence and common European freedom, were heard in Brussels in honor of the Ukrainian people and warriors. "It is absolutely fair that Ukraine traditionally participates in meetings of the EU leaders. The Ukrainian language is heard in the discussions of EU presidents and heads of government, the Ukrainian language is heard in the European Parliament. This is already ensured. And we will make this part of the usual European practice when Ukraine becomes a member of the European Union," he emphasized. The President called the building of unity one of the most important results of Ukraine's cooperation with the EU, in particular, unity around the fact that the European Union will stand with Ukraine until its victory and Ukraine will be in the EU. According to the Head of State, the European Council held a substantive discussion on what ensures security and protects life, guarantees stability, restores justice and fully meets both Ukrainian and European interests. Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked the European partners for the air defense systems provided. At the same time, he noted that it is in the interests of Ukraine and the whole of Europe to make sure that Russia cannot produce new missiles and constantly hit Ukrainian cities and infrastructure with them. The Head of State emphasized that he was inspired by the statements that Europe would stand with Ukraine until victory. "And today I heard from the leaders of some European countries that they are willing to provide Ukraine with the weapons it needs, including fighter jets," he said. Volodymyr Zelenskyy also thanked all the leaders and citizens of the European Union for their warm attitude towards Ukrainians, for sheltering those of our people who were saving themselves and their children from hostilities. "Thanks to this support, millions of our citizens and millions of EU citizens have seen that our shared European values are really effective," the Head of State noted. For his part, Charles Michel emphasized that the coming weeks in Ukraine will be crucial, so Europe must demonstrate unity. Stay connected with us!
