The EU move comes after some European countries have increased their bilateral military assistance to Ukraine even as the Biden administration is hamstrung by Congress on providing large-scale assistance.

The UK has also promised to provide Ukraine with weapons worth more than $2 billion.

In a related development, Russian President Vladimir Putin vowed to retaliate against the US and its allies once they fiddle with frozen Russian assets. Putin said the West would lose $288 billion once they ship Moscow’s money to Ukraine.
