The European official reminded that the Belarusian authorities continue to facilitate Russian military aggression. They have repeatedly committed provocations against the European Union: violated airspace and used migrants, which led to the imposition of sanctions by the European Union.
"The European Union is ready to take further actions and measures as long as the Belarusian authorities continue their current policy. And, of course, Ukraine has the right to defend itself," noted Anita Hipper.
