“This year, Putin brought back the horrors of war in Europe and reminded us that peace cannot be taken for granted,” said the head of the European Commission.
Russia’s war against Ukraine is illegal and unjustified, he stressed.
In addition, Russian state-controlled propaganda distorts history and spreads conspiracy theories, and anyone who opposes it is punished. And there will be no rest until Ukraine defends its position, von der Leyen is convinced.
