Training

A new EU training mission for Ukrainian military personnel received the green light from EU foreign ministers on Monday in Luxembourg. „The EU Military Assistance Mission will train the Ukrainian Armed Forces so they can continue their courageous fight,” said the EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell in a statement. The EU ministers agreed on the mission after a new Russian rocket and drone attack shook Kyiv on Monday morning. Romania’s foreign minister Bogdan Aurescu, who attended the meeting, condemned Russia’s attacks and voiced support for the consolidation of EU military assistance for Ukraine. He said it was important for the EU to also support the Republic of Moldova in the current context.
