"In Kiev for the tenth time since the beginning of the war. To reiterate that Europe stands by Ukraine, financially, militarily, and in this harsh winter."
This was stated by the President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen , who arrived in Ukraine together with the President of the European Council , Antonio Costa, to reiterate the EU's support for Kiev on the fourth anniversary of the beginning of the conflict with Russia , which began with the invasion of Moscow's troops on 24 February 2022.
"We are here," Von der Leyen added, "to underline our unwavering commitment to Ukraine's just struggle. And to send a clear message to both the Ukrainian people and the aggressor: we will not give up until peace is restored . Peace on Ukraine's terms."
Yesterday, on the eve of her departure, the President of the European Commission declared: "One day, Ukraine will be safe. Ukraine will be free. Ukraine will be part of our European family."
