“We will continue to support Ukraine in advancing the reform agenda of its European perspective after Ukraine has been granted candidate status. We will hold an Association Council on September 5 after the summer break and we are working to ensure that this Council advances the European perspective for Ukraine through implementation of the necessary reforms,” he announced on Monday in Brussels at a press conference following the meeting of the EU Council at the level of foreign ministers.
Borrell confirmed that the ministers had unanimously approved his proposal for the next tranche from the European Peace Fund in the amount of 500 million euros, which will be formally decided in the coming days.
The High Representative stated that the EU is “terrified of the brutality of Russian aggression against the civilian population in Ukraine, the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war”, the Russians are “burning fields with grain”, “blocking food supplies” and “are responsible for world hunger” . “Russia is trying to destroy Ukraine and the Ukrainian nation, while at the same time unleashing the global food and energy crisis. Ministers agreed that we must continue to stand by Ukraine in its struggle for independence. Ukraine needs more weapons and we will supply them. We We will continue to support Ukraine,” he assured.
Borrell also said that work continues on sanctions for the Russian Federation. He also refuted claims that energy price increases were driven up by the EU’s ban on Russian oil. “Many say that the EU, by imposing sanctions, provoked a rise in prices. This is not true. The price of oil rose one month before the war, and after we banned the export of oil from Russia, the price of oil fell,” the High Representative stated. .
Tom Tugendhat, Chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Commons of the British Parliament, had to leave the electoral race and drop out of the struggle for the post of Prime Minister of the country following the results of the third round of the election of the new leader of the Conservative Party of Great Britain.
Former finance minister Rishi Sunak received the most support with 115 votes. In addition to him, three more candidates continue to fight – Junior UK Trade Policy Minister Penny Mordaunt (82 votes), Foreign Minister Liz Truss (71 votes), former Minister for Equality and Local Self-Government Kemi Badenoch (58 votes).
The results of the vote were announced by the head of the so-called “committee 1922” (a parliamentary group from the Conservative Party in the House of Commons of Great Britain), Sir Graham Brady, on the air of Sky News. According to him, Tugendhat received the fewest votes (31), and therefore left the race.
Sky News notes that in this round, Sunak secured 14 votes, Truss received seven votes, Badenoch – nine. Mordaunt, in turn, lost one vote compared to the results of the second round of elections.
Last week, former British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt, Treasury Secretary Nadhim Zahavi and Attorney General Suella Braverman dropped out of the fight in the first and second rounds of elections. At the same time, Hunt and Zahavi failed to overcome the bar of 30 votes required to enter the second round.
The process of choosing a new party leader started on 13 July. The Conservative Party will hold a series of ballots until only two candidates remain. After that, party members will have to choose their leader before a deadline set by the “1922 committee” (the Conservative party parliamentary group in the UK House of Commons).
On July 8, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced that he agreed to resign, but after the Conservatives elect a new party leader.
Johnson has been Prime Minister of the UK since 24 July 2019.
British media believe that the main reason for Johnson’s impending resignation is a number of scandals, in which he has become a defendant in recent months.

The success of our advocacy is evidenced by clarification that we received the other day from the central executive authority of Poland,” the office said.
According to the letter of the Polish Ministry of Finance, Ukrainians will be able to retain tax residence in Ukraine and not pay taxes in the host country, if it is not about income from sources in Poland.
As reported, the European Business Association called on the government to resolve the issue of tax residence of Ukrainian citizens abroad, since staying outside the country for more than 183 days, they can be recognized as residents of the host country and there will be a risk of double taxation of income received in Ukraine.
