In addition to the aid for allies, the package includes a provision to transfer frozen Russian assets to Ukraine, sanctions targeting Hamas and Iran and to force China's ByteDance to sell social media platform TikTok or face a ban in the US.The Netherlands will provide more than $213.26 million of additional military support to Ukraine for air defence and artillery ammunition, said Dutch defence minister Kajsa Ollongren.
If the West genuinely seeks dialogue, it must first abandon the so-called"Zelenskyy formula,""an ultimatum" demanding Russia's surrender, withdrawal to 1991 borders, leadership trial, reparations, and weapon placement restrictions within a 200 km frontline zone, Lavrov said in an interview with Russian radio stations.
"We are determined to continue to provide military, financial, political, humanitarian, economic, and development support to Ukraine and its people," they added.US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has said that China was indirectly fuelling the Ukraine war with the supply of components to Russia which it uses for its military expansion.
Ukraine said that Russian forces had launched 22 missiles and more than a dozen drones across the country in an overnight barrage that left at least eight dead. Shmyhal also met with Hakeem Jeffries, the leader of the Democrats in the US House of Representatives, with whom he exchanged views on military assistance to Ukraine, budget support, and the confiscation of Russian assets.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said the attack damaged multiple storeys of a residential building and a train station in the regional capital, Dnipro, as he called for additional air defences. "With the boost that would come from military assistance, both practically and psychologically, I think the Ukrainians are entirely capable of holding their own through 2024," Burns said."There is a very real risk that the Ukrainians could lose on the battlefield by the end of 2024, or at least put Putin in a position where he could dictate the terms of a political settlement," he said, referring to Russia's president.
