The European Parliament has adopted a resolution on the anniversary of Russia's full-scale invasion. Among other things, MEPs called for the transfer of fighter jets to Kyiv
This is stated on the European Parliament's website.
“In a resolution marking one year of Russia’s war against Ukraine, MEPs strongly condemn Moscow’s aggression and reiterate their unwavering solidarity with the people and leadership of Ukraine,” the press release says.
According to the report, MEPs reaffirm their support for providing military assistance to Ukraine for as long as necessary and call for “serious consideration to be given to delivering Western fighter jets and helicopters, appropriate missile systems and substantial increases in munitions delivery to Kyiv.”
“Ukraine must not only be able to defend itself, but also to regain full control of its entire internationally recognised territory.”
The resolution calls for the adoption of the 10th package of anti-Russian sanctions by the end of February, as well as the start of negotiations on Ukraine's accession to the EU.
