\n KYIV, Ukraine (AP) \u2014 Ukraine\u2019s top official for Europe says the war-torn country is on an \u201cirreversible\u201d course of Western integration after the European Union agreed to formally start entry negotiations this week.The decision to launch accession talks this week is a \u201cbig day\u201d for her country, Olga Stefanishyna, the deputy prime minister for European and Euro-Atlantic integration, said. \u201cThis is the utmost will of the Ukrainian people. And this is the irreversibility. And you\u2019ve seen Ukrainians stand up for their choice,\u201d Stefanishyna said, speaking in Kyiv Sunday.It was her first interview since being appointed chief negotiator for EU accession.EU leaders agreed Friday to start the entry talks with Ukraine and Moldova \u2013 overcoming vocal opposition led by Hungary which takes over the EU\u2019s rotating presidency on July 1.Stefanishyna will head the opening of the accession talks in Luxembourg Tuesday, joined by several top government officials. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is expected to give a speech at the launch ceremony, but Stefanishyna did not elaborate whether he would do so in person or online.<\/p>\n
Zelenskyy described Friday\u2019s decision as a \u201chistoric step,\u201d adding in an online post: \u201cGenerations of our people are realizing their European dream. Ukraine is returning to Europe.<\/p>\n
A survey of opinion polling by the European Parliament earlier this year suggested that EU citizens broadly back Ukraine\u2019s membership bid but are less supportive of fast-tracking the process. <\/p>\n
Ukraine, Stefanishyna said, was not seeking special treatment.\u201cUkraine is moving fast,\u201d she said, \u201cwithout skipping any elements of the process (and) without asking (for) any discount.\u201dRussia has used economic pressure and ultimately military force to try and reverse the aspirations of its former Soviet neighbor to join Western alliances it regards as hostile.<\/p>\n
Deadly protests a decade ago to demand that the government stick to a pledge to forge closer ties with the EU put the country on a collision course with Russia.\u201cIt\u2019s a big day for everybody,\u201d said Stefanishyna, who frequently showed emotion while describing the integration process. \u201cIt has been around two years since Ukraine applied for membership. The war is still raging on, but the accession is starting right now.\u201dStefanishyna, a 38-year-old lawyer who has worked in civil service and government positions since her early twenties, will lead Ukraine\u2019s 35-member delegation for negotiations with the EU. In 2019, Ukraine changed its constitution to include those aspirations and formally applied to join the EU on Feb. 28, 2022 \u2013 five days after Russia launched its full-scale invasion.Bordering EU members Poland, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania, Ukraine would overtake France to become the largest member of the bloc if it joined, shifting its center of gravity further eastward.Together with Moldova, it\u2019s in a long line with other candidates \u2013 Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, Montenegro, North Macedonia, Serbia and Turkey \u2013 some with membership aspirations spanning decades.<\/p>\n
Ukraine is hoping to join by 2030.While praised for making progress since its application, Ukraine must carry out dozens of institutional and legal reforms required for membership. The daunting list is led by steps to combat corruption, and includes broad reforms to public administration, the judiciary, and market rules. More than 1000 people in Ukraine are already involved in the accession process which will proceed without a summer break.\u201cThe next half a year will be crucial for our key negotiators,\u201d she said, adding that Ukraine needs to come up with a clear reform roadmap.\u201cThe accession process and Ukraine\u2019s membership is the top priority of our president,\u201d she said. \u201cUkraine is a bit crazy and obsessed with the EU accession process.\u201d ___Follow AP\u2019s coverage of the war in Ukraine at https:\/\/apnews.com\/hub\/russia-ukraine<\/p>\n
