In view of Ukraine’s successes on the battlefield, EU foreign affairs chief Josep Borrell has warned of Russia’s possible use of nuclear weapons. The war has entered a new phase in which a nuclear power is declining and there is a threat that nuclear weapons will also be used, the EU chief diplomat said in the European Parliament on Wednesday. Don’t close your eyes to that, said the Catalan.
“This is certainly a worrying scenario where we need to show that our support for Ukraine does not waver.” Borrell emphasized that solidarity with Ukraine must remain unconditional even in a cold winter. Against the background of the war, Russia has drastically reduced gas supplies to Europe, pushing up energy prices and threatening a recession in the European economy.
Borrell explained that the future of Ukraine must also be linked to the future of the people of the EU. As a basis for a lasting peace, Borrell said Russia must take political and moral responsibility and pay for reconstruction, and that those responsible for war crimes must be held accountable.
