On Ukraine’s Independence Day, the EU has approved 6.1 billion euros in financial aid for Kyiv. This is in addition to British Prime Minister Andy Burnham clearing the way for Ukraine to produce a version of the long-range SCALP missile. Plus, French President Macron has commited to provide more interceptor missiles. These European pledges come as Zelenskyy faces corruption probes and calls from a former loyalist to hold national elections. So could the European support be a timely shot in the arm for him and Ukraine? Anja Kueppers-Mckinnon speaks to military expert Gustav Gressel and to DW’s Ukraine correspondent Nick Connolly.
