Borrell to Putin: There will be no fatigue from Ukraine, it will not become “second Belarus”
Josep Borrell, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, has stressed that EU members will continue to support Ukraine in the war with Russia, despite speculation about possible "fatigue". Source: Borrell after an unofficial meeting of the EU foreign ministers in Stockholm on Friday, reported by European Pravda Details: Josep Borrell has stressed that over 15 months of the war, Russia has not abandoned its intention to "subjugate" Ukraine and continue to destroy it.
Therefore, it is important to provide long-term instruments to support Kyiv in addition to the short-term ones that exist today. Quote: "And I want to send a clear message to Putin: there is no fatigue and there will be no fatigue. We will continue to support Ukraine for as long as it needs and as long as it takes."
More details: He has stressed that in the current situation, Ukraine cannot give up the struggle because it threatens its existence as a nation, while Russia does not want to do so.
Quote: "Many people say they want peace. We want it. And those who want peace more than anyone else are Ukrainians.
Ukrainians want peace. We want peace. But we do not want a surrender.
We do not want Ukraine to become a second Belarus."
Background: Earlier, Borrell said that Beijing, although it remains an important partner of Brussels, has already lost the opportunity to mediate in the war unleashed by Russia.
