Kamisheni ya Ulaya imetoa mapendekezo ya kutaka Ukraine iruhusiwe kuwa mwanachama wa Umoja wa Ulaya, kauli ambayo imetolewa wakati Urusi ikiendelea kushinikiza Nchi hiyo kutoruhusiwa kujiunga na Umoja huo.
Halmashauri Kuu ya Umoja wa Ulaya, ambacho ndicho chombo kikuu cha utendaji cha Umoja huo, imekutana leo Juni 17, 2022 Jijini Brussels kuridhia ombi lililotumwa na Ukraine siku nne tu baada ya Urusi kuanza uvamizi dhidi yake Februari, 2022.
Kikao cha kilitanguliwa na ziara ya viongozi wa mataifa matatu makubwa ya Umoja wa Ulaya Jijini Kyiv.

European Commission Backs Ukraine's EU Membership
The European Commission recommended Friday that Ukraine should be granted European Union candidate status.
"Ukraine has clearly demonstrated the country's aspiration and the country's determination to live up to European values and standards," the EU's Executive Commission head Ursula von der Leyen said in Brussels.
The Executive Commission also approved the candidacy of Moldova, one of Ukraine's neighbors, for membership in the bloc.
Ukraine and Moldova still face a lengthy process to achieve membership.
French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi and President Klaus Iohannis of Romania visited Kyiv on Thursday in a show of support for Ukraine amid its battle to fend off Russia's invasion.
"It's an important moment. It's a message of unity we're sending to the Ukrainians," Macron said. Air raid sirens blared as their visit began.
After the talks between the four and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, the four signaled that Ukraine would be offered candidate status in the economic bloc.
"My colleagues and I have come here to Kyiv today with a clear message: Ukraine belongs to the European family," Scholz said.
Dmitry Medvedev, the former Russian president who is now deputy head of the Kremlin Security Council, dismissed the European leaders as "connoisseurs of frogs, liver and pasta" and said their visit brought no benefit.
"Again they promised EU membership and old howitzers, slammed down some vodka and, like 100 years ago, took the train home," he tweeted. "And that's all good. It's just that this doesn't bring Ukraine any closer to peace. And the clock is ticking."
But in his nightly video address, Zelenskyy said it was important for him to hear that the European leaders "agree the end of the war and peace for Ukraine should be as Ukraine sees them."
He said Ukrainians will continue to fight for all of their land.
