"No need to go to die for the Donbas": Borrel told whether war for Europe is inevitable

The EU chief diplomat proposes to focus on the need to support Ukraine, to increase the defense capability of the European industry and not to frighten people without need. The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Vice president of the European Commission, Josep Borrel, denied those who believe that Europe is on the verge of war.

Before the EU summit in Brussels on Thursday, March 21, Borrel told reporters that "it is not necessary to go to Donbass", but it is necessary to support Ukraine. The EU chief diplomat believes that calls for European leaders to understand the challenges, it is good, but "no need to exaggerate. " "The war is not inevitable. I have heard those who say the war is inevitable. Well, thank God it is not inevitable. We live in peace. We support Ukraine. We are not part of this war.

We just support Ukraine and we We need to prepare for the future, increasing the defense capability of our industry, but we do not need to frighten people unnecessarily that the war is not far off, "Borrel said. He added that it is inevitable to support Ukraine. "It is not necessary to go to die for the Donbas. It is about supporting Ukrainians so that they are not killed in the Donbass and not killed in Kiev when they are bombed," Borrel emphasized.

We will remind, on March 18, the head of the European Council Charles Michel called on Europe to go into the regime of "military economy". He is convinced that the EU has been facing the greatest security challenge since the Second World War. If European countries do not provide sufficient help to Ukraine to stop Russia, they will become the next.
