Analysis: There is significant sympathy in the bloc for President Zelenskiy’s cause, but it may lead to no more than warm words

There is an urgency to the Ukrainian president’s calls and, naturally, as images of the carnage in Ukraine’s cities beam back to Brussels, there is significant sympathy with his cause.
