EU High Representative Kaja Kallas says there is “new momentum” in the issue of formally opening negotiation clusters on Ukraine’s accession to the EU, which makes it possible to open all clusters before summer.

She said this in Brussels on Monday at a press conference following a meeting of the EU Foreign Affairs Council.

Kallas said the ministers had also discussed Ukraine’s accession, noting that Ukraine had made significant progress on reforms under the most difficult circumstances. According to her, there is now new momentum that should be used to advance Ukraine’s path to the EU, which means opening all negotiation clusters before summer.
