"Rat je ušao u novu, mračniju fazu. Rusija odugovlači na bojnom polju i napada civile daleko iza linija fronta", napisala je Fon der Lajen na društvenoj mreži Iks nakon razgovora sa Zelenskim.
Ona je istakla da je prenela solidarnost Evropske unije sa ukrajinskim narodom i pružila punu podršku Zelenskom u, kako je navela, borbi za slobodu ukrajinskog naroda.
Fon der Lajen je najavila da će Ukrajina biti u središtu pažnje predstojećeg sastanka Evropskog saveta, na kojem će se razgovarati o njenim finansijskim potrebama za narednu godinu i načinima za mobilisanje dodatne međunarodne podrške.
Prema njenim rečima, Evropska unija će tokom ove nedelje obezbediti dodatna sredstva za nabavku dronova i raketa radi jačanja ukrajinske odbrane i zaštite vazdušnog prostora.
Predsednica Evropske komisije navela je i da se očekuje otvaranje još dva klastera poglavlja u pregovorima o pristupanju Ukrajine Evropskoj uniji, ocenivši da proces proširenja dobija na zamahu.
Good call with @ZelenskyyUa today. Fully supported the call of President Zelenskyy for a ceasefire that would protect global food supplies and energy infrastructure in Ukraine and Russia The war has entered a new, grimmer phase. Russia is stalling on the battlefield and striking civilians far behind the front lines. I conveyed our solidarity with the Ukrainian people. And my full support for President Zelenskyy as he leads the fight for his people’s freedom. Ukraine will be front and centre at this week’s European Council. We will discuss its funding needs for the year ahead and how to mobilise fresh global support. This week, the EU will also provide further funding for drones and missiles. To strengthen Ukraine’s defences and protect its skies. We are also due to open two further clusters of chapters in the negotiations. The momentum is real. — Ursula von der Leyen (@vonderleyen) October 11, 2026
