EU Member States have agreed on the terms for releasing €6.6 billion European Peace Facility funds for Ukraine. That’s good news for Ukraine and bad news for Russia. €900 million are for the EU’s Military Assistance Mission for Ukraine. €1 billion will fund new joint procurement of equipment. And €4.7 billion will reimburse Member States, with some already saying they will channel their share to Ukraine. Moscow’s hybrid attacks try to intimidate Europe into scaling back its support for Ukraine. Europe is doing the opposite.

Europe faces waves of airspace violations and sabotage, but also a relentless stream of Russian disinformation. That is why the EU today sanctioned Xenia Fedorova. We're defending our information space against fabricated lies and deliberate manipulation. This is deterrence, not censorship. The EU will continue to counter Russia's destabilising activities.
L’Union européenne vient de sanctionner Xenia Fedorova, dans le prolongement des mesures prises cet été par la France à l’encontre de l’ancienne dirigeante de RT France, visée par un arrêté d’expulsion et un gel de ses avoirs. La France, comme l’Union européenne, continuera d’entraver les activités de déstabilisation menées par la Russie sur notre sol. Notre détermination est entière : ceux qui pensent pouvoir conduire impunément des manœuvres hostiles à notre démocratie en subiront les conséquences.
