Leaders of political groups in the European Parliament have drafted a statement in support of Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia. According to Radio Liberty, the leaders of the European Parliament political groups call on the European Union to support Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia in granting EU candidate status.
According to Radio Liberty, the submitted text is a draft joint statement and it may still be subject to change, however, key issues, including the call to grant candidate status, will remain in the text.
As RFE/RL points out the leader of political groups are not involved in the process of granting candidate status and their support is only a call to the European Commission.
