@EIB Putin will pay for the damage he has caused. The EU has already proposed the creation of a court to investigate and prosecute Russia's crimes. It has also established a Joint Investigation Team with Ukraine to investigate war crimes and crimes against humanity.

@EIB The European Union's plan has helped reduce dependency on Russian oil, gas, and coal — undermining Putin’s capacity to finance the war.

Through various methods, the EU has reduced its share of Russian gas from 40% to less than 10%.

The European Union fights the disinformation used by Russia as an instrument of its war against Ukraine. We actively anticipate and deter it, ban propaganda actors, and support Ukraine in building resilience against hybrid threats.

The European Union is designing the main building blocks of Ukraine’s recovery. Launched in January 2023, the Multi-agency Donor Coordination Platform will coordinate support for Ukraine’s repair, recovery, and reconstruction.

Finally, since the start of the war, the EU has worked in lockstep with the 🇺🇸 United States to impose massive sanctions on Russia, its military, and its economy.

With our international partners, we shoulder the responsibility of helping our Ukrainian friends.
