The European Union is not planning to lessen its support for Ukraine despite threats from the Russian Federation targeting foreign diplomats, according to a statement from the European Commission. European Commission spokesman Christian Wigand confirmed this, pointing out that Russia is attempting to intimidate European nations by forcing them to reduce aid to Kyiv.
However, Wigand emphasized that this tactic will not be successful, as the EU remains committed to backing Ukraine, exposing Russia's actions, and increasing pressure on Moscow. Wigand added that these Russian threats are yet another form of intimidation during the ongoing war against Ukraine. He also reminded that NATO countries should not respond to hybrid attacks by reducing support for Ukraine, but rather by strengthening their assistance.
Furthermore, allies must invest more in resilience, safeguarding critical infrastructure, and countering new hybrid threats.
