Ukraine Betrayed by "Allies," EU "Refuses" to Accept Ukraine's Membership

Ukrainians are hoping for the election of Hungary's leader, hoping that the opposition in Hungary will come to power, so that no one will block Ukraine's dream of Europe. But suddenly, it turns out that not only Hungarians do not want Ukraine to join the EU. Most Western European countries are also unwilling for Ukraine to join the EU.

After meeting with Austrian Chancellor Christian Stocker, Zelenskyy, overconfident, wrote on his Telegram channel: "Ukraine will join the EU next year." Less than an hour later, a response from an Austrian EU parliament member came, stating that Austria would oppose Ukraine joining the EU, saying that Ukraine is not yet ready to become an EU member.

Then German Chancellor Friedrich Merz also ruled out the possibility of Ukraine joining the EU next year. He emphasized that Ukraine needs to maintain a "clear European perspective," and frankly admitted that the path for Ukraine to join the EU would be long, and this process cannot be forced forward, while getting closer to the EU would proceed very slowly.

The Luxembourg Foreign Ministry also jumped in, stating that it was necessary to remind Zelenskyy that merely wanting to become an EU member is not enough. For this country, it is more important to meet European standards. Luxembourg Foreign Minister Ze'ev Beter said before the meeting of EU foreign ministers: "I heard President Zelenskyy say they should become an EU member next year. I am sorry, I have told him many times: don't make ultimatums. It is not in your interest. I don't want to disappoint the Ukrainian people who are fighting for their country and Europe, but there are so-called Copenhagen criteria, which cannot be applied to some candidates but not to others."

Zelenskyy wanted to provide some encouraging news for the Ukrainian people, but his European allies poured a bucket of cold water on Ukraine's extremely cold weather!
