Hello, Can you make an update on Europe’s recent help in Ukraine? We no longer see any announcement of “packets” of aid. THANKS
Thank you for your message. On this subject, I refer you to the article by Pierre Breteau, dating from June 18, who wonders about the way Europeans have sought to compensate for the end of American aid. “The United States, which was previously the biggest donor to Ukraine, have not announced a new envelope since the beginning of January”reports the German Institute Kiel, which publishes the amount of aid promised and provided to Ukraine several times a year. Donald Trump even imposed on the country a « deal » On the exploitation of his minerals, presented as a consideration for American aid.
Since the beginning of 2025, subsidies from European countries have, on the other hand, strongly believed and have come to compensate for the withdrawal of Washington. In just three months, Europe – in the geographic sense – thus allocated 19.1 billion euros to Ukraine. This is the highest quarterly total since February 2022.
At the forefront of contributors are the Nordic States (Norway has released 670 million euros in April 2025; Sweden 1.6 billion, in March). The United Kingdom is also largely participated in this effort, with 4.5 billion euros unlocked between January and April 2025. France has mobilized 2.2 billion euros since the start of the year, mainly in the form of anti-tank weapons, anti-aircraft defense means, armored vehicles and ammunition. This places Paris at an average of 505 million euros per month, much more than than 2024 (101 million), 2023 (135 million) or 2022 (165 million).
Some European nations have, on the contrary, followed the opposite trend, as the Kiel Institute notes: in the wake of the return to power of Donald Trump, Germany, Italy and Spain have reduced the level of their contribution to previous years.
If you want to know more I invite you to read the article in its entirety.

Hello, What is the state of pollution of soil, water and air in the bombed areas of Ukraine? The tonnage of explosives used and other pollutants such as fuels of missiles, drone batteries, electronic, etc., should be impressive? Not to mention the destroyed equipment and buildings.
Thank you for your question. A report dating from June 2024 and produced by climate experts quoted 175 million tonnes of CO2, Direct and indirect war shows-the equivalent of annual Netherlands programs.
A third of these greenhouse gas emissions came directly from military activity (which uses fossil fuels), a third of the fires caused by the war and another third of the necessary reconstruction of buildings. One of the main sources of emission is fuel consumption, which represents 51.6 million tonnes of CO2 (including 35.2 million from Russian troops), specifies the report.
In addition, in addition to “indirect” attacks on biodiversity there are also attacks against the environment. On this subject, you can find an article, dating from June 22, 2023, in which our journalist Faustine Vincent explained that already, on this date, the attacks on the environment had become, for Russia, full -fledged weapons in the war. You also have this article by Jacques Follorou, on the pollution of the Seïm river northeast of kyiv in the summer of 2024.

Police investigate war crimes committed in Ukraine
The Ukrainian police and justice have embarked on a titanic mission, almost impossible, since the Russian invasion, on February 24, 2022: investigating each crime committed during the war, from the most serious to the worst killing of innocent civilians in looting and theft. Tens of thousands of cases are under investigation. Until now, acts of accusation have been issued against 679 individuals (171 Ukrainians and 508 Russians), including 53 accused of crimes involving sexual violence, and the courts have condemned 189 people for war crimes (19 detainees and 170 in absentia).
“I was raped for three days”: police investigate war crimes committed in Ukraine
By Rémy Ourdan
After her release, she did not go to the police and has long kept silent, to protect her children. First because they still lived in territory occupied by the Moscow army, then, after they joined it on the Ukrainian side of the front line, because “These stories don’t watch them”even if they “Will know a whole day”. Silence also because it is unlikely that the Russian officer who owned him and raped him responds to his crimes before the courts. She thinks she is only a woman among many others, in the nightmare of the Russian occupation, and that her rapist is only one of many others, sheltered in Russia, in an ocean of impunity.
Three injured and a person killed in the Kharkiv Oblast
