pledges to continue supporting Kyiv despite the growing burdens
Concern is growing in Europe, Africa and Asia about the exacerbation of the burdens caused by the war in Ukraine and its negative impact on the lives of citizens, according to Josep Borrell, the European Union's external relations official.
But Borrell, despite this, stressed - in his speech to the BBC during a meeting in New York on the sidelines of the General Assembly meetings at the United Nations - the importance of continuing support for Ukraine .
He said that if the war does not end in a way that preserves the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, this will lead to more wars.
European countries are studying the idea of imposing a seventh package of sanctions against Russia, but Borrell said they have almost exhausted the measures that could be imposed on Moscow.
