The German foreign minister promised Ukraine additional aid as Russia stepped up its attacks on energy infrastructure with winter on the horizon.
German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock has promised Kyiv an extra €100 million ($111 million) in aid to help Ukraine see through the winter.
“Clearly, autumn is coming, winter is knocking at the door,” Baerbock said on a trip to Moldova, adding that Russia is planning a renewed “winter war, to make the lives of people in Ukraine as miserable as possible.”
In the past, Russia has stepped up attacks against energy infrastructure in Ukraine ahead of plunging temperatures.
