The statement indicates that the tragic incident occurred due to a massive Russian missile attack on Ukrainian infrastructure facilities.

Borrell noted that Russia should stop its illegal war against Ukraine.

The diplomat said that the countries of the European Union will continue to stand by Ukraine and support its independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity.

"We will continue to provide strong political, military, humanitarian and financial support to Ukraine as long as necessary. We will continue to increase pressure on Russia to end the war and withdraw from the territory of Ukraine, including through restrictive measures," Borrell said.

He added that Russia and its accomplices will definitely be brought to justice.

It will be recalled that earlier President Volodymyr Zelenskyi said that

he had received signals from Western partners about the desire to start negotiations with Russia

, and suggested that they take place in a "public format".

Earlier, the EU High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy, Josep Borrell, stated that European countries are

highly dependent on China

, and in some areas even more so than dependence on Russian gas.
