Security for Ukraine: debate with Andriy Yermak and Anders Fogh Rasmussen

This joint exchange of views between the Foreign Affairs Committee, the Security and Defence Subcommittee, Andriy Yermak and Anders Fogh Rasmussen, will provide an opportunity to discuss the recent annual report on Common Security and Defence Policy, which called on the EU to support the principles of the Kyiv Security Compact as an immediate interim solution for Ukraine’s security problems.

The discussion will also focus on what military capability Ukraine needs to stop Russia’s war of aggression, including support from allies and partners in the short and medium term.

Background
