Brussels – Polish Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Radoslav Shiskorski, addressed European Union diplomats ahead of a key meeting, stressing the conditions necessary for Ukraine’s eventual accession. Shiskorski underscored that Ukraine must meet established criteria to progress toward full membership within the European Union. Speaking on June 15, 2026, Shiskorski highlighted the urgency of the situation, stating that securing Ukraine’s place within the EU is not a matter of chance but a deliberate and necessary process.
