　　RIA Novosti on the 10th quoted the deputy director of the Ukrainian President's Office Zovkova as saying that Kyiv looked forward to starting the process of Ukraine's accession to the European Union as soon as possible.

"The Ukrainian side looks forward to the decision of the EU leaders to start Ukraine's accession process and complete it in the near future," Zovkova said.

　　The leaders of the EU member states held an informal meeting in Versailles, France, on the 10th and 11th.

RIA Novosti quoted an EU official as saying on the 10th that EU leaders are unlikely to give Ukraine EU candidate status and more likely to cooperate more within the alliance agreement.

　　According to the report, according to the draft declaration of the meeting, EU representatives did not agree on Ukraine's possible membership, and they believed that the EU could not "give more" given that the conflict between Russia and Ukraine is still not over.

　　Zelensky signed Ukraine's application for EU membership in the capital Kyiv on February 28, and on March 1 he again called on the EU to agree to admit Ukraine into the EU.

On the same day, European Commission President von der Leyen said that Ukraine's accession to the European Union must first end the armed conflict.

According to a report by RIA Novosti on the 10th, Ukrainian Prime Minister Shmigal posted on social media that he had discussed the steps of Ukraine's accession to the European Union with European Parliament President Metzsola.
