Josep Borrell will have to listen to some criticism when the foreign ministers and then the defense ministers meet in Brussels today and tomorrow. In March, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs promised Ukraine one million artillery shells by spring 2024.

In the same manner, the Spaniard pushed ahead in the summer with the idea of earmarking €20 billion for military aid to Ukraine over the next four years.
