President Volodymyr Zelensky has emphasized that Ukraine's accession to the European Union is not a dream out of science fiction", but a strategic goal that the Ukrainian authorities are striving to achieve as soon as possible, UNIAN reports.

Speaking at a joint press conference with President of Lithuania Gitanas Nauseda in Kyiv, Zelensky noted the importance of Lithuania's support for Ukraine's European and Euro-Atlantic aspirations, an UNIAN correspondent reports.

"Today we have coordinated actions to update the Association Agreement and further integrate Ukraine into the European Union. To this end, a very important document was signed – the Declaration on Support for Ukraine's European Prospects," Zelensky said, quoting its last sentence saying Lithuania will support Ukraine when the country decides to apply for EU membership.
