„The Bundestag resolution is about support to Ukraine in its fight for freedom and territorial integrity, which is also a fight for the peaceful order in Europe. The German Parlament expresses its option that our assistance should include support for Ukraine's aspiration to EU membership. The Bundestag also underlines that this applies equally to Georgia and Moldova.
At the same time, it points to the criteria for membership as defined in the European Union treaty: high standards of democracy and the rule of law, a sufficient level of socio-economic development, ability to implement EU law. These are the things that enable a country to be a successful member of the European Union“, - Ambassador Hubert Knirsch said.
