The European Union will provide Ukraine with combat aircraft and weapons worth EUR 500 million.

This was announced by the Center for Strategic Communication and Information Security on Facebook with reference to the High Representative of the European Union, Josep Borrell, according to Ukrinform.

"We're going to provide even fighting jets. We're not talking about just ammunition. We are providing more important arms to go to a war," Borrell told a press conference.

He added that more lethal aid, worth EUR 500 million, is to be delivered to Ukraine.


It was also reported that the EU has banned the Kremlin mouthpieces, RT and Sputnik, as well as disconnected a number of Russian banks from SWIFT.

Thanks to the new sanctions, about half of Russia's reserves will be blocked in the G7, the top EU diplomat added, noting that the European Union seeks to toughen sanctions until central banks open tomorrow.

If Putin wanted to "restore respect for Russia,” this is what he gets, according to the Center.

As previously reported, despite Putin's threats, the European Union today made a political decision to provide Ukraine with half a billion euros in defense aid against Russian invasion, of which EUR 450 million will be spent on lethal weapons and another 50 million – on non-lethal materials such as fuel and protective gear. This was stated today in Brussels following an informal meeting of EU foreign ministers, which took place by teleconference, said Josep Borrell.

The West is now directly confronting Putin, theiur fighter jets are going to be in the air, no more airspace dominance for PUtin, his helicopters and jets are about to get shot down..

This is when your agidi backfired, when you bite more than you can chew..

You mean the EU is about to commercially make sales on an ongoing conflict? This is what the issue has always been, the West takes every chance to sell weapons to sides during a conflict.

They can get involved directly but they refused. They could have not nudged Ukraine into a war they know they can't handle, they refused.

They could have given then these weapons for free too but this is the EU and US. Money is the most important factor which they will book as a loan to Ukraine with crazy interest rates when Ukraine will need money to rebuild

What we need presently is global peace and not war. I will continue to say this, for the world to have peace then the UN must ban building and selling of weapons.
In every crisis everyone want to cash. Providing weapons to Ukraine will make more Ukrainian refugee in other countries.

I hope soonest Russia and Ukraine will come to terms and restored back peace in Ukraine.

War is business. Why do you think Russia Ak47 is the most used weapons in armed conflicts especially in Africa and middle east?

That is why Russia is threatening to go nuclear

Drugnibu's radioactive yellow teeth can be used in producing missiles during this war.

Ukrainian scientists need to tap into this huge discovery for their benefit.

He just wants to set world on fire. Europeans are stubborn. They don't give up. That is reason the continent has so many countries.

Obviously, Putin called their bluff, he ignored their threats and invaded Ukraine, but what's done is done so the question now is what's next? We sit it out and watch Putin colonize Ukraine? Let him gain more power, and move on to his other neighbors like Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania, all NATO members? Or even Poland and so on. ?

This is now about stopping the next Hitler.

Of course, they can not get involved directly, but they are involved regardless, they are providing weapons, fuel, intelligence, military advice, and now fighter jets and possibly volunteer pilots.

I don't think they are billing Ukraine for the weapons and funding reconstruction is almost guaranteed.

The ukrainian will be the biggest loser in this war, one thing I like about Russia and her allies, they make less noise and watch the west do the noise making and strike where it hurts the most.

The reason Ukraine going to be the biggest loser is also why Yemen is in ruins after Iran and Saudi fought a proxy war there.

The West will not send troops, they will send weapons, Russia will send a fraction of its military and they will have their war but on whose soil? Not any of them. It will be Ukraine that will suffer.

Make them scatter let African nations be liberated.

Who is going to fly them

They just want to offload their obsolete technology and make space for the new ones they are working on

BTW these aircrafts won't be free, if you know you know

Everyone wants to cash out Las las

Ukraine will soon be in ruins. IMF will then come in with conditions that wiil make them perpetual economic slaves to the west.

It's not even about loan sef, EU's Peace Fund is now being used since they got approval to use it Saturday and guess who will have the biggest cash out

France (Europe biggest Aircraft manufacturers)

Germany (Europe's biggest arm manufacturers)

That money they been contributing for peace now 2 nations wants to cash out

They are selling arms which means 2 things

1. The arms are old tech and went be as effective against an overwhelming force like Russia
2. The arms are new tech which either means they won't be sent immediately as they will require training and more equipment or They just want to clear out their warehouse.

Both ways, smile to the bank for the EU

They have shown their true intentions..sell weapons. Soon separatist groups will spring and Ukraine will be in ruins
They had the chance to make peace but they didn't.
They had the chance to bring in troops to defend Ukraine but they didn't..na weapons they won sell.
They don't care about the wellbeing of the citizens ..na weapons they won sell..
Egypt
Lybia
Cuba
Syria
Iraq
Afghanistan
Etc..the aim is to sell(unload their outdated weapons)

To what end will this put a stop to the war?

Window to sell outdated weapons without a way of delivery and which means they are going to be used by the next President of Ukraine who is a Russian stooge , that means win win for Putin

Dash them na

Bring it on. The boss is prepared for the worst.

Putin is ready for heaven to fall. He is an ex KGB, not a comedian like Ukraine clown and soon to be former president. He has planned this over the years. He is prepared to take the world including China if China decides to die with the enemies in the West including US, whole of Europe, Canada, Australia. Putin is ready to end the world, after all everything that has a beginning must surely has an end.

If Europe and US continue their nonsense, we will all wake up one day in Hell Fire because Putin will nuke all of us.

Brillant analysis

Na Sell They Wan Sell?

Ukraine will soon be in ruins. IMF will then come in with conditions that wiil make them perpetual economic slaves to the west.

Slave wey dey chop, sleep well, live in peace, sees 24/7 electricity, uses all the latest gadgets and electronics
Is better than a Master in Zambia forest living like a wild chicken with absolutely no modern infrastructure not even 2km paved roads or running water or even 12 hours electricity per day, nor peace of heart or rest of mind.

I rather be a slave living lavish and in peace we will eventually pay the debt
Than be a master in Nigeria with ABSOLUTELY nothing with 0 debt.

You owe nothing but own nothing
Vs you owe "World Bank" or China and own everything
And mind you these are not personal loans they are state loans if you default they aren't arresting you, they will take control of whatever asset that loan was used to build and use it to recoup their debt.

Meaning if you take Chinese loan to build a road and fail to pay the loan they will put toll gate on the road and operate it till they get their debt back, that's if they don't forgive the loan.

If you use the loan to build stadium they will be the ones to collect tickets for the stadium, if you use the loan for a national carrier/airline and fail to pay they will take either part ownership of the carrier or you will hand it over to them to run until they make the equivalent of the money they borrowed to you.
It is not as if they will take citizens into slavery and sell the country on Jiji or Konga

America successfully played Putin and got him emotional enough to start a war.
This war is a win win for America because:

1. No American soldier dies and Russia has been isolate and punished by EU

2. American allies has increased in europe. More countries now want to join NATO

3. Putin's military is now seen as the bad guys.

4. Russian economy is crumbling, thanks to sanctions. Soon russians will turn against their government.

4. America and EU gets to sale weapons.

This is were Hypersonic missles and satan 2 can't help putin

War has always been business as usual…

With weapons getting into Ukraine flawlessly, I hope they do not become an European Libya in the making…

But nevertheless, Ukrainians needs to defend their lands.

They gave them money and collect it back via war machines

The mother-fucker can now go on and bomb France, UK or Germany. And he will get the mother of all wars.
