President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy indeed sent a letter to the European Commission requesting Ukraine's accession to the EU, but first, the war must be ended, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said at a press conference during a visit to Bucharest.

"This will be discussed with the [EU] member countries, but now our first task should be to end this terrible war," said the head of the European Commission.
