Fico: Surprising how quickly some EU countries welcomed the US bellicose move
NATO has taken command of the Aegis Ashore missile defense system in Poland. The system is part of NATO's missile defense shield designed to detect, track and intercept enemy offensive ballistic missiles.
The Russian Defense Ministry said two Storm Shadow cruise missiles were shot down. It also said six US-made HIMARS missiles and 67 airplane-type drones were shot down. The former leader of the ruling Labor Party Jeremy Corbyn demanded from Prime Minister Starmer an explanation, why it was done without parliamentary approval and whether the UK is now at war with a nuclear power.
Foreign embassies are shutting down one after another in Kiev. Following the United States, the diplomatic missions of Spain, Greece and Italy closed. Later, Portugal and Canada suspended their work.
It's amazing how quickly some EU countries have welcomed the bellicose move by the US. This is simply a confirmation that the EU is unable to formulate fundamental foreign policy positions on its own and that the West wants to continue the war in Ukraine at any cost.
