EU Split: Italy, Spain & France Question Ukraine Aid Boost | Spain’s FM Albares Backs €1B Pledge

Italy and Spain have pushed back against the EU’s plan to double military aid to Ukraine, citing concerns over timing and ongoing diplomatic talks.

The proposal, led by EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas, aims to raise aid from €20 billion to €40 billion by 2025.

While northern and eastern EU nations strongly support the move, southern countries like Italy and Spain are urging caution.

Even France has voiced concerns, adding to the growing divide within the bloc.

Hungary and Slovakia have outright refused to participate, but EU officials say their opposition won't derail the plan.

Marco Rubio Clashes With Witkoff, Fight Gets UGLY Over Putin—Confusion Rips Through MAGA Circle

A rift has emerged within Donald Trump’s inner circle over Russia’s intentions in the Ukraine war. While Secretary of State Marco Rubio and envoy Keith Kellogg urge caution, Trump leans toward aide Steve Witkoff, who believes Moscow seeks peace. Witkoff’s meetings with Putin, including a recent 5-hour session, intensified the divide. Meanwhile, a deadly missile strike in Sumy triggered further controversy, with Trump calling it a "mistake" while others condemned it. Russia blames Ukraine for escalation and misinformation. As trust wanes, US foreign policy appears sharply divided. #TrumpRussia #UkraineCrisis #MarcoRubio #SteveWitkoff #KeithKellogg #PutinTalks #RussiaUkraineWar #USForeignPolicy #WSJReport #Zelensky #SumyStrike #UkrainePeace #Lavrov #KirillDmitriev #RussiaDiplomacy #WhiteHouseDivide #Geopolitics #UkraineConflict #MoscowTalks #TrumpAides
