Key take away
Is this @SecMarkrutte beside Ursula?
1. Ursula fon der Leyen :
«Today in Paris we reaffirmed that Ukraine deserves peace through strength.
Peace respectful of its independance, sovereignty, territorial integrity, with strong security guarantees.
Europe carries its full share of the military assistance to Ukraine.
At the same time we need a surge in defence in Europe»
«The EU and its international partners are united in condemning Putin’s aggression on Ukraine. We will provide support to those seeking shelter and we will help those looking for a safe way home. The EU will continue to offer strong political, financial and humanitarian assistance to Ukraine and impose hard-hitting sanctions against Russia and those complicit in the war»
«Just arrived in Paris for crucial talks.
Europe’s security is at a turning point.
Yes, it is about Ukraine—but it is also about us.
We need an urgency mindset.
We need a surge in defense.
And we need both of them now»
