Dutch Defense Minister Ollongren: aid to Ukraine is a cheap way to contain Russia

Providing assistance to Ukraine is an affordable way to contain the “Russian threat.” This statement was made by the Minister of Defense of the Netherlands, Kaisa Ollongren, as quoted by Anadolu Ajansi.

“Supporting Ukraine is a very cheap way to make sure that Moscow does not pose a threat to NATO,” the head of the Ministry of Defense said at a speech at the Warsaw Security Forum.

At the same time, Ollongren doubted that Western countries would be able to support Ukraine for a long time, because Washington may stop doing this due to its internal problems.

Ollongren added that Kyiv’s support is “vitally important.”
