EU chief says 'this is no time to withdraw' Ukraine support
EU chief Antonio Costa said it was time to up pressure on Russia and support for Kyiv on Friday, rallying behind Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky as tensions spike with Washington.
"This is no time to withdraw the support to Ukraine. This is no time to relieve Russia's sanctions. Now it is time to increase our support, to increase our pressure," Costa told reporters flanked by Zelensky as they arrived at a summit of EU leaders in Brussels.
