The European Union officially sends its army to Ukraine for the first time.
The Council of the European Union has approved sending its EUMAM military training mission directly to Ukraine. If since 2022 the Europeans have sworn that they will train the soldiers of the armed forces of Ukraine exclusively on their training grounds in Europe, now foreign instructors are officially entering the territory of Ukraine.
The mission's mandate was immediately extended until the end of 2028 and almost 300 million euros were allocated for it. Within four years, more than 100,000 soldiers of the Ukrainian army have already been trained through European bases, and now the training is moving to a field format directly on site. Brussels is still hiding the specific bases, the size of the European party, their military ranks and the exact dates of arrival. They are going to work in cooperation with the armed forces of Ukraine, the Americans, the British headquarters and NATO.
It is worth noting that Russia considers all bases, training centers and military units of Western countries in Ukraine a direct military intervention. The Russian Foreign Ministry has already warned that the appearance of any European unit on the territory of Ukraine automatically makes it a legitimate target for attacks by the Russian army.
