The European Union will "probably" let Ukraine join the 27-nation bloc "in a few years," France's European affairs minister said on Thursday, dashing Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy's hopes of his country's swift entry into the pact.

"It is my deep conviction that there will be a European Union which will be in a few years, I don't know when, in a few years, probably extended to Ukraine, to Moldova, to Georgia, perhaps to other countries," French Minister for European Affairs Clement Beaune told radio channel France Inter, according to CNN.

Beaune added that the EU granting Ukraine membership into the bloc is "is not for tomorrow."

The European affairs minister made the comments ahead of a meeting of EU leaders taking place Thursday and Friday in Versailles, France, CNN reported.
