HOW SHOULD EUROPE STEP UP FOR UKRAINE? - February 24 marked the third year of Ukraine’s fight for survival against Russia’s full-scale invasion. During that time, Ukraine has withstood Russia’s onslaught with the support of its allies around the world—particularly from the United States and its European neighbors. However, moves and recent rhetoric from US President Donald Trump and his administration regarding the future of the conflict have called into question US support for Ukraine. Meanwhile, Europe, whose countries are the largest net contributors to Ukraine, is facing calls to increase its support and lead on providing Ukraine the security guarantees it requires for a durable peace.
Europe’s capitals have been working to develop a robust response. But after multiple meetings including leaders’ meetings in Paris and trips to Kyiv, Europe remains divided. With a special meeting of European leaders called for March 6, what can Europe do for Ukraine to ensure its security? And can Europe continue to supply Ukraine with the assistance it needs on its own?
This expert panel discusses the state of play in Europe when it comes to supporting Ukraine and what Europe can and should do to in order to support Ukraine.
