I met with the defence ministers of France, Germany, Italy, Poland and the United Kingdom in Paris today for talks on support for Ukraine, European defence and the conflicts in the Middle East.
There is a new diplomatic push for peace in Ukraine, but Putin's actions tell a different story.
In recent days, Russia has again launched heavy attacks on Kyiv and sunk civilian ships in the Black Sea.
There is little hope for imminent peace in Ukraine. Our task is to help Ukraine withstand the attacks and increase the costs for Russia.
This month, the EU has adopted the largest sanctions listings against Russia since the war started, and more are in the works.

More than 400 civilians are killed or injured every week in Ukraine.
Russia's war has left Ukrainian cities in ruins and lives shattered.
In October, the EU adopted its largest set of sanctions listings to date, targeting companies and CEOs linked to Russia's war effort.

The idea of all nations coming together to protect people from war and injustice is radical. And it works.
On this @UN Day, let's remember all the lives saved and improved through multilateralism – and all those who still need our support.
Let us not give up on that idea.

Defending the UN is defending our shared future - Europe stands firm for effective multilateralism. 🇪🇺🇺🇳

For 81 years, the @UN has been:
Settling disputes with diplomacy & laws.
Working to eradicate poverty & hunger.
Promoting human rights.
And delivering life-saving aid to people facing war, disaster & displacement.
Today, the United Nations is needed more than ever.
We will continue working to strengthen the UN to best serve people & meet the challenges of our time.

Russian attacks on civilian ships in the Black Sea are unjustifiable and pile heavy pressure on global food supplies.
The latest deadly drone strike on a cargo ship near Romanian waters is another escalation.
Romania’s Foreign Minister @DanNeculaescu and I spoke yesterday about the deteriorating regional security situation and we remain in close contact.
