German Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced that Ukraine could enter the European Union when it meets the criteria.
"Ukraine is part of the European family. We are ready to support the country in the EU accession process. It is obvious to everyone that entry into the EU can occur only after meeting all the criteria," he said in an interview with "Corriere della Sera" newspaper. "The EU must also take several steps to be able to accept new members," added the chancellor, who arrived in Italy on a visit.
