European Parliament President Says Europe Has To Provide Ukraine With Heavy Weapons

EU member states should provide heavy weapons and equipment, including tanks, to Ukraine, European Parliament President Roberta Metsola said on Friday.

"Ukraine needs heavy weapons and it needs tanks, it needs arms, member states can provide them, as Russia escalates its invasion, and it gets more desperate. We need to respond with a proportionate way," Metsola told reporters before the EU summit in the Czech capital of Prague.
