Sometimes, the message is often the place. Roberta Metsola, President of the European Parliament, traveled to Ukraine as the first leader of the community leadership, and became the first to visit the country under attack by bombs.
“On the way to kyiv”, confirmed the Maltese politician on her Twitter account this past Thursday night, without giving details of her agenda for security reasons. Until now, The only European leaders to have visited Ukraine since the invasion were the Prime Ministers of Poland Mateusz Morawiecki and Petr Fiala of the Czech Republic. Janez Jansa of Slovenia, and Jaroslaw Kaczynski of Poland as Deputy Prime Minister. They arrived by train in Ukraine and met President Volodymyr Zilensky to express their support for the departure of kyiv.
The President of Europe, Charles Michell, and Ursula von der Leyen gave the blessings to the leaders of Eastern countries. However, the surprise of their visit was that the EU representation corresponds to European positions and even French President Emmanuel Macron. Macron holds the rotating European presidency. He has made numerous calls to Vladimir Putin in an attempt to reach out to him to discuss possible negotiations.
Metsola’s recent visit is unclear if any other officials in the community are looking to follow his footsteps. In the event that this does happen, security reasons will require that Metsola’s announcement of her arrival be made as soon as possible. Josep Borrell was the highest representative of community diplomacy and made a visit to Ukraine before the invasion started. He also visited the Donbas War Front, where war has continued since 2014 between kyiv (pro-Russian separatists) and kyiv.
Metsola acknowledges that the European Parlament has limited power in this field, but he promised Stefanchuk before Stefanchuk to continue supporting Ukraine’s entry to the EU.
Rada Speaker was also assured that the EU will take care of the families of those who were forced to flee and allow them to return to their homes to rebuild their lives. It will also help to “rebuild your towns and cities after this illegal, unprovoked war ends.” We provide humanitarian, financial and military aid. It will continue and increase.”
Metsola also had a meeting with Denys Shmymal, Prime Minister. According to his Twitter account, Maltese politicians endorsed a new package for sanctions against Russia. “We must go further. Europe will find this moment, ”she wrote on this social network. Even though European diplomacy has begun to prepare a fifth round of sanctions, disagreements remain over a possible Russian embargo on hydrocarbons.
