The Commissioner for European Neighbourhood Policy and Enlargement Negotiations, Johannes Hahn, met with Ukraine’s President-elect Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv.

"Today I congratulated Volodymyr Zelensky personally in Kyiv to his impressive victory to become President of Ukraine which gives him a very strong mandate to fight against corruption and for "de-oligarchisation“," Hahn wrote on Twitter.

The EU Commissioner noted that he had offered Zelensky "the EU’s support to all the reforms that benefit the citizens of Ukraine."

"Ukraine faces many challenges and threats and all Ukrainian authorities - President, Government and the Verkhovna Rada - have now to act in the most responsible manner," he said.

"This means to ensure that in the current transition period and ahead of Parliamentary elections urgent reforms are not stalled, but accelerated to ensure financial and economic stability (including the guarantee of international financial support and energy supply). No time to be wasted," Hahn noted.

As reported, Johannes Hahn arrived on a working visit in Kyiv on May 7.
