The Versailles declaration is a document issued on 11 March 2022 by leaders of the European Union (EU) in response to the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine that had begun two weeks earlier.[1][2][3][4] The document reaffirmed the EU's support for Ukraine, and outlined the union's plans for "bolstering defence capabilities, reducing energy dependencies and building a more robust economic base".[5][6]
