Ukraine is concerned about the loss of support and a shift in global attention to Israel, – Financial Times reported

Ukraine is concerned about the potential loss of international support and the world’s attention shifting towards Israel.

This information reported according to an article in the Financial Times.

During today’s meeting of EU foreign ministers, Ukraine will not be the top priority on the agenda for the first time since February 2022.

“The Ukrainians are now asking whether there will be enough global focus and resolve amid the twin distractions of two big wars. Given the slow counteroffensive and Russia showing no signs of backing down, Ukraine faces the prospect of a long war that will require unprecedented and sustained support from its allies,” the publication speculates.

The Financial Times suggests that Ukrainian concerns are not baseless, noting that “the world has already forgotten Russia’s war against Ukraine in the past.” This reference is to the signing of the Minsk agreements in 2015, after which “the world’s attention waned.”

President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is worried that giving Vladimir Putin a pause will enable him to prepare for a more extensive new invasion.

“Ukrainians, particularly their president, have shown they are adept at diplomacy, rallying much of the world against Russia. But as the war grinds on, they know it will likely become harder to ask for additional support in the billions of dollars, especially in the midst of other global crises,” the Financial Times writes.
