Dvacet minut Radiožurnálu | Summit in Brussels: Ukraine needs investment in offensive capabilities

At Brussels, on April 17th and 18th, an extraordinary summit of European Union took place. Originally it was intended to focus on enhancing the bloc's competitiveness, but the agenda of the meeting shifted towards discussing military support for Ukraine, and the situation in the Middle East.

Not even an inch will it push the Russians back from the country they're attacking.
