"I informed my colleague Dmytro Kuleba that I have just signed
the resolution that provides for the immediate disbursement of 110 million euros to the government of Kiev, as a concrete expression of Italy's solidarity and support for a people with whom we cultivate a fraternal relationship. At the moment, Ukraine is under siege without being guilty, attacked with continuous bombing by the Russian government
, "Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio wrote on Facebook.
"Peace is the goal for which we all continue to work every day and we reply to Russian arms with sanctions: the only way to stop this crazy war. We are putting in place increasingly harsh sanctions and already at the Foreign Affairs Council of today we are preparing to discuss others. The EU and all its allies must stand together and continue to demonstrate solidarity. Continue with determination in this 'European resistance' to Putin's violence ".
