Poland, Germany, and France vow to send more aid to Ukraine

"We will procure even more weapons for Ukraine, on the overall world market.”

"We will procure even more weapons for Ukraine, on the overall world market.”

After a summit on Friday, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk vowed to send more weapons to Ukraine in support of the country's fight against Russia.

In a statement to the Associated Press, German Chancellor Scholz said, "(Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy) knows that he can rely on us, and we are renewing this signal for support for Kyiv from here today."

"But a crystal-clear signal also goes to Moscow. The Russian president should know that we won’t let up in our support for Ukraine," he added. "starting immediately, we will procure even more weapons for Ukraine, on the overall world market.”

"Secondly, the production of military equipment will be expanded, including through cooperation with partners in Ukraine,” Scholz continued. The German chancellor also noted that a "coalition of long-range rocket artillery" would be set up as well.

French President Macron affirmed his support for Ukraine and the "Weimar Triangle" in a statement. He said, "This is a serious moment.

"A new era is dawning, and we’ll be there," Maron noted. "And the fact that the three of us are united on this day, determined with the same lucidity about the situation in Ukraine and determined never to let Russia win and to support the Ukrainian people to the end, is a strength for us, our peoples, our security and our Europe.”

As for Poland, the only country of the three bordering Ukraine, Prime Minister Tusk said, "We want to spend our money, we want to help in every possible way." He added, "Here and now, so that the situation of Ukraine in the coming weeks and months gets better, not worse."

The outlet notes that the three leaders all agreed that "no ground troops" would be sent to Ukraine by any European country to assist in the fight, even though French President Macron previously said it shouldn't be ruled out.

A bill for the United States to send more aid to Ukraine is currently stalled in the House of Representatives, as leaders from around the world continue to pressure lawmakers to pass it.
