6.6. Continuarea unui sprijin de neclintit al UE pentru Ucraina, după trei ani de război de agresiune din partea Rusiei (RC-B10-0156/2025, B10-0156/2025, B10-0158/2025, B10-0159/2025, B10-0161/2025, B10-0163/2025, B10-0165/2025, B10-0166/2025, B10-0168/2025) (vot)

  President. – The next vote is on the joint motion for a resolution on continuing the unwavering EU support for Ukraine, after three years of Russia's war of aggression (see minutes, item 6.6).

Colleagues, before we continue with the vote, I will give the floor to Nicola Procaccini.

– Before the vote:

  Nicola Procaccini, on behalf of the ECR Group. – Mr President, according to Rule 264, on behalf of the ECR Group, I would like to propose the postponement of the resolution on Ukraine. This resolution doesn't take into account what happened yesterday evening. The agreement between the US and Ukraine seems to be the good news we were waiting for. For the first time, a cease‑fire is possible, and it's what Ukraine wants. I'm afraid that a resolution that is not up to date can only serve to unleash hatred against Trump and the US, rather than favour the Ukrainian cause.

(Parliament rejected the request)

– Before the vote on Amendment 4:

  Michael Gahler, on behalf of the PPE Group. – Mr President, colleagues, we heard the good news yesterday of a Ukrainian and American agreement to offer a ceasefire, which may help end fighting and prepare for negotiations of a peace agreement.

This should be reflected in our resolution, and that is why I propose to add, after this paragraph 13, the following text:

'Welcomes the joint statement by Ukraine and the Unites States following their meeting in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on 11 March 2025, including the resumption of US military assistance and intelligence sharing as well as a proposal for a 30 day ceasefire agreement; reminds that a ceasefire can be an effective tool of suspension of hostilities, only if the aggressor fully adheres to it; expects therefore Russia to agree to it and follow it by ceasing all attacks on Ukraine, its military positions, civilian population, infrastructure and territory;'

(Parliament agreed to put the oral amendment to the vote)
