Former Estonian President Discusses Strong EU Support for Ukraine, Though Risks Remain

Former Estonian President Kersti Kaljulaid says EU support for Ukraine is strong, though some risks exist like conflict between Israel and Hamas.

Kaljulaid believes NATO should have given Ukraine a membership roadmap, but some member states opposed it. Ukraine's army will be an asset to NATO.

Sanctions must constantly adapt to be effective against Russia's powerful economy. The EU should sanction more goods and services.

Ukraine likely can't join NATO during the war, but membership criteria are ambiguous so Russia doesn't know what to prevent.

The Kyiv Independent editor appeals for readers to support their independent news from Ukraine through membership.
