Petro Poroshenko, who is participating in the Munich Security Conference, met with Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic, European Union Commissioner for Defense Andrius Kubilius, and the chairmen of parliamentary committees of Italy, Estonia, Poland, and the Czech Republic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was reported by the press service of “European Solidarity”<\/a> .<\/p>\n

“I told him how Ukrainians survive without heat and light under daily bombings, how we lack weapons, and how important it is for Europe to be strong today. This is not only Russian aggression against Ukraine, this is aggression against all of Europe,” Poroshenko said. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He called on the Croatian Prime Minister to actively lobby for increased military and economic support for Ukraine.<\/p>\n

“We are talking about the rapid approval by the European Council of a loan of 90 billion euros for 2026-2027 and the confiscation of frozen Russian assets. We also exchanged views on the prospects and obstacles to the implementation of the initiative for accelerated membership of Ukraine in the European Union,” he said. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Poroshenko also discussed strengthening European positions with European Union Commissioner for Defense Andrius Kubilius. As the fifth President noted, the European Commissioner is today an active and creative generator of ideas and approaches to strengthening the security of a united Europe.<\/p>\n

“I had the opportunity to discuss with the Commissioner pressing problems and ways to strengthen support for Ukraine and the growing role of our state in the EU’s defense strategy,” Poroshenko writes. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

With the European Parliament rapporteur on Ukraine, Michael Haller, Poroshenko discussed preparations for a special session of the European Parliament on the occasion of the fourth anniversary of the Russian invasion, as well as the substantive content of the relevant resolution on support for Ukraine. ways to accelerate EU membership. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

He also met with the European parliamentary delegation “United for Ukraine”.<\/p>\n

“With the heads of committees of the parliaments of Italy, Estonia, Poland, and the Czech Republic, we discussed ways to strengthen Ukraine’s negotiating positions, Europe’s defense potential, the Euro-Atlantic alliance, and weaken the Russian aggressor and its allies,” the leader of Eurosolidarity reported. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“We agreed on the need for accelerated membership of Ukraine in the EU while maintaining high attention to compliance with European standards of democracy and the rule of law in our state,” Petro Poroshenko writes.<\/p>\n

In an interview with journalists, Petro Poroshenko emphasized that Europe is currently financing the lion’s share of weapons for Ukraine, so European partners should be at the peace negotiation table.<\/p>\n

“We spoke with Radoslaw Sikorski, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Poland. He said that in 2025, all the financing of weapons that was carried out for Ukraine was carried out at the expense of the European Union. For me, this is a very powerful argument for the European Union to be represented at the negotiating table. The negotiations should not be in the US-Ukraine-Russia format, but must involve the European Union,” Poroshenko believes. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine, this is important, but nothing without Europe. The fate of the continent cannot be decided, and these negotiations about the fate of the security of the European continent, without the European Union,” Petro Poroshenko emphasized.<\/p>\n

The Fifth President also believes that without a complete ceasefire, any peace talks will be fruitless.<\/p>\n

“I firmly believe that the strategy of immediately launching negotiations on a peace agreement is meaningless. We need to divide this into two stages. Stage one is the stage when we have to ensure a ceasefire. We have two tools, Chancellor Merz said this, including during the meeting with me. The first is sanctions that cut off Putin’s ability to finance the war. The second is weapons that enable Ukraine to respond to attacks on civilian infrastructure,” Poroshenko explains.<\/p>\n

He emphasized that without “boots on the ground”, without NATO troops, including American ones, security guarantees in Ukraine are unreliable.<\/p>\n

By the way, Petro Poroshenko, who is participating in the Munich Security Conference, said in an interview with the Polish television channel Slawa TV that without a complete ceasefire, any peace talks will be fruitless<\/a> .<\/p>\n
