Annalena Baerbock says it is still important to ‘face the geopolitical challenge’ in Ukraine
A European Union plan to spend up to €20bn ($21.4bn/£17.5bn) on military aid for Ukraine is meeting resistance from EU countries and may not survive in its current form, diplomats say.
Josep Borrell, the EU’s foreign policy chief, proposed in July that the bloc create a fund with up to €5bn a year over four years as part of broader western security commitments to bolster Ukraine as it fights Russia’s invasion.
