Europe ramps up support to Ukraine as its US-dependent air defence runs low
European leaders are meeting Kyiv as Ukraine holds celebrations for its 35th Independence Day. The so-called Coalition of the Willing is set to hold talks regarding support to the country, four-and-a-half years after the Russian invasion started, with the European Union having announced it was releasing over six billion euros in aid. But US support to Kyiv regarding critical air defence is still missing. FRANCE 24's Kethevane Gorjestani tells us more.
