EU-Ukraine accession negotiations feasible – Varadkar

The Ukrainian president is expected to press EU leaders to allow Ukraine to begin accession negotiations to join the European Union as soon as possible.

Volodymyr Zelensky is in Brussels attending an EU summit where he will meet leaders of EU member states. He addressed the European Parliament in the Belgian capital earlier on Thursday.

Speaking in Brussels this morning, Taoiseach Leo Varadkar said it was feasible that accession negotiations with Ukraine could begin later this year if it meets the required criteria.
