"This year must be decisive in our negotiations regarding Ukraine's accession to the EU, as needed by Ukraine, and thus for the security of all of Europe. This year, the EU presidency is held by Poland in the first half, and Denmark in the second half. They are very responsible partners. From Ukraine's side, we will ensure everything necessary to take the right steps," the president said.
