Von der Leyen also said that Western allies need to “increase” the level of military support and equipment provided to Ukraine, saying that Ukraine needs “all the military equipment it can use, including advanced weapons systems .”
Since the Ukraine crisis worsened, the United States and its Western allies have continued to “fire” continuously, providing military aid to Ukraine and at the same time increasing sanctions against Russia.
Currently, the EU has implemented nine rounds of sanctions against Russia, which include many important areas such as energy and finance, which have greatly reduced exports to Russia.
