The European Union (EU) on Thursday officially granted Ukraine candidate status for membership. Earlier, EU leaders had agreed to give Ukraine candidate status for inclusion in their organization. On the other hand, on the 120th day of the Russo-Ukraine War, Russian forces captured two villages in eastern Ukraine. Now Russia wants to encircle some Ukrainian frontline soldiers by occupying a major highway, cutting off logistics.
This marks the first step in a long and unpredictable journey to full membership of the European Union. The British Defense Ministry said Ukrainian troops had been withdrawn from some areas near the city of Lysychansk to avoid the possibility of a siege. Here Russian soldiers are shelling heavily.
