"Real Problem": The EU has recognized that the war in Israel affects Ukraine's support (video)
This was stated by the Supreme Representative of the European Union on Foreign Affairs and Security Policy of Zzepe Borrel at the EU Ambassador Conference. The head of European diplomacy has expressed fears that the level of international support of Ukraine may begin to decline, against the backdrop of what is perceived as a "practice of double standards". Borrel noted that in a number of countries in the global south they are still considering war in Ukraine as a regional conflict.
According to the diplomat, many states use the situation in the Middle East to emphasize the alleged contradictions in the position of Europe. "This is a real problem, and you have to make efforts to counteract this," he said diplomats. According to Borrel, the unity in the issue of support of Kiev should remain in priority, since the result of the Russian-Ukrainian war is not determined, and the defeat of Ukraine would be a defeat for its western partners. "If Ukraine loses, we lose.
We need to maintain unanimity and unity in support of Ukraine," the diplomat emphasized. We will remind, on November 2 the House of Representatives of the United States adopted a bill on the allocation of Israeli military assistance worth $ 14. 3 billion, which does not contain assistance to Ukraine. The bill caused the dispute between members of the House of Representatives and the Senate.
