The President of Ukraine, Volodimir Zelenski, has told a group of international investors that he wants his country to become a full member of the European Union within two years.
In the conversation, reported by the Ukrainian newspaper ‘Hvylya’, the Ukrainian president lamented the prevailing pessimism «among world leaders who believe that Ukraine needs 10 years to become a member of the EU».
«But they mostly know us and sometimes even fear our spirit, our energy. Therefore, we see that we can be in the EU in two years, security guarantees through,» according to Zelenski, who also declared himself convinced that Ukraine will join NATO when it has achieved «victory over Russia.»
These comments came during a remote meeting with representatives of the world’s largest investment bank, JP Morgan, during an investor summit where he discussed the creation of a platform to attract private capital for the purpose of rebuilding the country when the war with Russia ends.
