European sanctions against Russia over its invasion were too late, and the EU should have brought Europe into the bloc sooner, says the Ukrainian President.
Zelenskyy said in the video that they were thankful, but it was a little bit. Nobody knows for sure if there was a chance of a war, but if it happened preventatively, Russia wouldn't have started a war.

The membership of Ukraine in the European Union is being prepared. Finally. I want you to not be late. Please.
