The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, announced this.
"This is very good news for the people of Ukraine, Moldova, and the entire European Union. The path ahead will be challenging but full of opportunities. Wishing you a successful start of the negotiations!" the head of the European Commission wrote.
According to von der Leyen, the peoples of Ukraine and Moldova have demonstrated "unwavering commitment" to joining the European Union.
