Meanwhile, 5 people, including a child, had to be taken to hospital in an attack in South Kherson on Saturday night.
Europe’s support for Ukraine
Let us tell you that Ukraine has the full support of America and Europe. From time to time the leaders of these countries visit Ukraine. They challenge Putin and Russia from the parliament there. Condemns Russia’s attack on Ukraine. In the meantime, financial aid and weapons are arranged for Kiev. Russia hates this very much so Putin keeps warning America and NATO to stay out of it.
In the latest development, Spain now holds the presidency of the 27-member European Union. It is to be noted that the presidency of the European Union is given to countries in turn every six months. In such a situation, when Spain got the chance, it did not take any time to verbally attack Russia, showing the strength of the European Union. Sanchez arrived in Ukraine as soon as he took charge.
