The US promised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy hundreds of millions of dollars in new aid. The announcement came after US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin met Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in Kyiv on Sunday.
Russia's Foreign Ministry says it has declared 40 employees of German diplomatic institutions in Russia "persona non grata." In a statement, the ministry said it had summoned Germany's ambassador in Moscow and handed him a note. The ministry said it was "a symmetrical response" to the German government's decision to expel 40 Russian diplomats from Germany on April 4.
Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas has told DW that her country expects Germany to show strong leadership and deter Russian aggression. The comments come with the German government facing criticism over its reluctance to ban Russian oil and send heavy weapons such as tanks to Ukraine. "Our neighbors' problems today are our problems tomorrow," said Kallas. "If we don't help our neighbors when their house is on fire, the fire will also catch your house."
