Vladimir Putin decides on a "military operation" in Ukraine

Diplomacy is over.

Shortly before 6 o'clock in the morning in Moscow (4 o'clock in Paris), the sentence fell: “I took the decision of a military operation.

In a televised statement, Vladimir Putin announced his decision to launch an offensive to defend the separatists in eastern Ukraine.

In his speech, the Russian president assured that he did not want "occupation" of Ukraine, but its "demilitarization" and its "denazification".

Since then, the strikes have started and the situation is evolving extremely quickly.

A European summit this Thursday to show Putin that the 27 are "united"

It is a meeting announced before the strikes in Ukraine on Thursday.

The European Union will meet urgently in Brussels to discuss the actions to be taken against Russia, but also the economic and migratory consequences of the conflict.

And to show its determination not to let Kiev down and above all to send a strong signal to Vladimir Putin, the EU wants to speak with one voice.

The European summit in Brussels will therefore have to show that “we are united” and that “the European family is coming together”, estimated the Elysée on Wednesday.
