Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

Ukraine's Application for Membership of the European Union: Engagement with Ambassador of Ukraine.

H.E. Ms Larysa Gerasko:

First, as I mentioned, we have a list of our requests or demands. I know that Ireland is not a member of NATO. What we need most of all is a no-fly zone over Ukraine. We would be grateful to all members of the committee if they could again urge their colleagues in NATO member states to push their governments to provide us with a no-fly zone. We would be grateful for members to advocate for our application for EU membership. We know that some EU member states are blocking our application and have some doubts regarding providing us with such an urgent procedure.
