BRUSSELS, March 20 (Reuters) - European Union leaders said on Thursday that they will continue to support Ukraine, but they did not immediately endorse a call by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy to provide at least 5 billion euros for artillery ammunition purchases.
“We need funds for artillery shells and would really appreciate Europe’s support with at least five billion euros ($5.42 billion) as soon as possible,” Zelenskiy told the EU leaders meeting in Brussels via video link.
Just outlets, it sounds more serious than the real “European Union leaders said on Thursday that they will continue to support Ukraine, but…”.
Actual vows would be at least funnier
Then again, it is response to the straight up “Give 5 billion” so i don’t think anyone should be surprised
