EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security, Josep Borrell, spoke on his Twitter account about the training of the Ukrainian Armed Forces as part of the EU’s mission to assist the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
He stated that the mission has “reached full operational capacity”. According to him, more than a thousand Ukrainian soldiers are already being trained as part of this mission.
According to Borrell, who visited his post in Poland, Europeans will train military personnel in line with the needs of the Ukrainian army.
He added that the European Union has allocated an additional 16 million Euros for the purchase of lethal weapons to train soldiers.
On 14 November, the European Union officially launched Training mission for the army of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in the EU.
Recently, The Washington Post referred to senior US Department of Defense officials. WroteThe Pentagon and its president, Lloyd Austin, want to strengthen the training of the Ukrainian military. We’re talking about hundreds or even thousands of soldiers who will be trained in “more sophisticated” warfare methods in Germany.
Currently, a special operation of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is underway in Ukraine. It was announced by Russian President Vladimir Putin on February 24. According to him, the purpose of military action is to demilitarize the neighboring country and to navy the authorities.
The decision to run the operation became the justification for new sanctions against Russia by the United States and its allies.
