President of the European Council Charles Michel says that Ukraine belongs to the European family, and the EU will support Ukrainians on their European path.

At the end of the EU summit in Versailles he said the officials also discussed Ukraine's bid. They said that their Ukrainian friends are full members of the European family. The EU will stand next to them and quickly mobilize in order to strengthen the ties between the EU and the people of Ukraine and will support Ukrainians' choice on their path, which is the European path.

Michel said the EU is here to support by any means - financially, humanitarianly - the men and women of Ukraine. The EU has European ambitions for peace, they are mobilizing equipment, including military equipment, and about EUR 500 million, which has been additionally allocated to our peaceful capabilities, the EU President said, adding that the EU representatives participate in the summit to support Ukraine.
