On 9 May, #EuropeDay, we celebrate peace in Europe. But this year, due to Russia’s brutal war against a peaceful and sovereign nation, we cannot.
We must continue to send all our support to Ukraine – a European country fighting for our values. https://t.co/Y1UsfSEPbF
Heartfelt wishes to all EU citizens on #EuropeDay. Today, more than ever, European unity &solidarity are crucial for our common victory against Russian aggression.

Ukraine completed the 2nd part of🇪🇺 membership questionnaire. This true 'book of 🇺🇦 statehood" in 9 volumes has been handed over symbolically to @EU_Commission on #EuropeDay.
We continue working with 🇪🇺 partners to ensure a positive decision on 🇺🇦 EU candidate status in June https://t.co/HlSUpLSqgi

Today is #EuropeDay.
It marks the 72nd anniversary of the Schuman Declaration, a starting point for the EU as we know it today.
Only through unity and solidarity are we able to maintain the European project. Together we are stronger. https://t.co/T4Zqb1a2yZ

#OTD in 1945, Nazi Germany surrendered unconditionally, formally ending the war in Europe. While celebrations erupted around the world, Victory in Europe Day (or V-E Day) was a time to remember those killed during the war, including the 6 million Jews murdered in the Holocaust. https://t.co/s2j2N9zFc0

I came to celebrate #EuropeDay in #Odesa, the city where Pushkin said that "you can feel Europe."
And where today the Ukrainian people shield their monuments from bullets and rockets and their freedom from Russian aggression.
You are not alone.
The EU stands with you. https://t.co/kneuEOvepb
