President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky signed three security agreements on Thursday in Brussels during the meeting of European Union leaders, BTA reported.
One of the three agreements is with the EU and was signed by the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, and the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen.
“For the first time, this agreement will include the commitment of all 27 member states to provide Ukraine with broad support, regardless of any internal institutional changes”wrote the president of Ukraine in “X” (until recently Twitter)
Zelensky also signed separate bilateral agreements in the field of security with the representatives of Lithuania and Estonia.
The Ukrainian head of state expressed his gratitude to the EU for remaining united after the start of the Russian military attack against his country.
On Tuesday, the EU formally opened negotiations with Ukraine for membership of the Union, thereby giving Kiev serious political support in the war to repel the Russian invasion.
“The pressure on Russia is not enough so far. The fulfillment of any promise of arms supplies to Kiev is important not only for the preservation of life, but also for the destruction of the Russian delusion that anything can be achieved by war.”the Ukrainian president said in Brussels.
He called for the confiscation of all Russian property seized in Europe and warned that in future wars, the destruction of the attacked country’s energy system could become part of military doctrine.
Next week, the first part of a total of 2.5 billion euros in proceeds from seized Russian property is expected to be received, which must be directed to provide military support for Kiev.
It emerged on Monday that the EU had found a way to overcome Hungary’s veto on arms purchases for Ukraine with the profits generated by this year’s freeze on Russian assets.
