EU supporting Ukraine based on its own interests, top diplomat says

Josep Borrell considers that if Russia wins, "US and European interests will be damaged".

"We cannot afford for Russia to win this war. Otherwise, US and European interests will be damaged. It’s not a matter of generosity alone; it’s not a matter of support for Ukraine because we love the Ukrainian people. It is in our own interests, and it is also in the interests of the US as a global player, the one who has to be perceived as a reliable partner and a security provider to the allies. This is why we call on the US to open and approve the supplementary budget," he pointed out.

Borrell added that the EU was making every possible effort "to support Ukraine more and quicker."

The EU said following a March 22 summit that it was determined to provide support to Ukraine "for as long as it takes and as intensely as needed."

Pentagon’s ‘new’ Ukraine aid package was spent months ago

$300 million allocated for Kiev in a stopgap US spending bill last week won’t go to new arms shipments.

The allocation for Ukraine was part of a $1.2 trillion spending package signed by President Joe Biden on Saturday, which will ensure funding for the US government until October.

The $300 million goes into the Pentagon’s Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), a mechanism used by Washington to funnel arms to Kiev, and which funds contracts for future arms and equipment deliveries. The money, however, “is not available for us to use now” due to how the initiative works, a US official told Politico on condition of anonymity.

Ukrainian general condemns sympathy for dead draft dodgers

Citizens who criticize connoscription efforts are playing into Russia’s hands, Land Forces Commander Aleksandr Pavlyuk has claimed.

Dozens of Ukraine’s male population are reported to have drowned while swimming across the Tisza River on the border with Romania in an effort to dodge the draft.

In a social media post on Sunday, General Aleksandr Pavlyuk, who heads the Ukrainian Land Forces, rebuked reports “about poor people drowning in the Tisza,” arguing that any such sympathy undermines the mobilization effort. His comments also came after claims of general unwillingness among Ukrainians to join the fight against Russia and a shortage of volunteers.
