What is known about the visit

Politico reported four days ago that the head of the European Council, Charles Michel, would come to Kyiv on November 21. Sources of the publication stated that Michelle planned to visit Ukraine on the day of commemoration of the Maidan protests that began on November 21, 2013.

As the President of Moldova, Maya Sandu, noted, their visit with Michel coincided not by chance — on the agenda of the discussion of the following steps regarding the accession of Moldova and Ukraine to the EU.

We will remind you that these visits take place on the eve of the European Council summit, which will take place in December. During it, EU leaders will discuss the European Commission's recommendation to start official negotiations on Ukraine's accession to the EU.
