Europe needs to show “resolve, not appeasement” as Russia wages war on Ukraine, Brussels chief Ursula von der Leyen warned today.
The European Commission President urged the bloc’s 27 nations to maintain their fragile solidarity as sanctions bite on Moscow – and Vladimir Putin tries to strangle gas supplies to the Continent, sending energy prices rocketing.
Insisting the EU’s alliance with Kyiv would be “unshakeable”, the bloc chief said: “The sanctions are here to stay – this is the time for us to show resolve, not appeasement.”
