MOSCOW, July 16. /TASS/. The European Union is becoming a distributor of military orders for the Ukrainian army to make products for terrorist attacks on Russia, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said about on the so-called Ukraine-Eastern Europe summit.
"From the rostrum of the ‘summit,’ Ursula von der Leyen announced the allocation to [Vladimir] Zelensky's regime of another 1 billion euros from a two-year 90 billion euro EU loan for the implementation of the agreement she signed with Zelensky aimed at further bringing together the military-industrial capabilities of Ukraine and the EU and providing for an increase in joint production by the end of 2026, including in Europe, of UAVs and means of combating them," the diplomat noted. "This is how the European Union becomes a distributor of military orders in the interests of the armed forces of Ukraine for the making of products for terrorist attacks on civilians and civilian objects in Russia, which again testifies to its growing involvement in the conflict."
Zakharova said that the EU leadership openly uses such "summits" as a lever to force the Balkan and other states "to demonstrate loyalty to the militaristic aspirations of Euro-Atlantic circles. But the discipline of the stick is starting to fail. There is a growing number of countries in Europe that publicly admit that they lack the ability to remain committed to Brussels' course of endless assistance to Ukraine. The failure of the multiplying regional formats to promote the bursting Anti-Russia project is also becoming obvious.
