Proud to announce a @Europarl_EN extraordinary Plenary Session on Tuesday 19 November, to mark 1000 days of the bravery and courage of the people of Ukraine.
President @ZelenskyyUa will join us for a special address from Ukraine.#SlavaUkraini
The European Parliament and its president, Roberta Metsola, are among the most active supporters of Ukraine in the EU.
Background:
- In September, MEPs demanded that EU countries lift current restrictions that prevent Ukraine from using Western weapons systems against legitimate military targets in Russia.
- In the summer, they condemned the "peacemaking" efforts of Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán.
