European Union defence ministers will discuss options to set up a military training mission for Ukrainian forces at an Aug. 29-30 meeting in Prague, the bloc's foreign policy chief said on Wednesday.
"As EU, we have to see what else we can do in terms of support to Ukraine and increasing the cost of this war for Russia," Josep Borrell said in a blog to mark Ukraine's independence day, six months after Russia invaded the country.
"We will discuss this ... in Prague next week, including on the issue of visas for Russian citizens and a possible EU training mission for Ukrainian armed forces."
