Spiegel reported that French and Italian officials had expressed scepticism about providing significant funding to support Kyiv, citing Paris and Rome's large public debts as a key concern.

The newspaper also reports that Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and French President Emmanuel Macron aim to take a leading role in EU negotiations with the United States. However, the proposal for a new support package, put forward by the EU's diplomacy chief, Kaja Kallas, appears to contradict this ambition.

Britain and to a lesser extent Germany seem to be taking it somewhat seriously.

you know when you'll know any european country is "taking it seriously", it's when they march troops into ukraine to create a human bullwark, before the americans land, and failing to do that, it's lost
