russian news channels spread fake information that the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, complained about the lack of money for weapons for the needs of the EU and Ukraine.
The truth is, however, that Borrell did not make any complaints about the critical lack of funding for arms. He was highlighting the problems of the industry, suggesting constructive ways to solve them. Moreover, he emphasized the EU's readiness to support Ukraine and the possibility of purchasing ammunition that the EU can obtain outside its borders.
Thus, the EU's position remains unchanged: support for Ukraine and increased production, and propagandists have again used the context and distorted what the European politician said for their own purposes.
