" "Russia is a great country, it is a great nation, it is used to fighting to the end, and it is used to almost losing and then recovering. It did it with Napoleon, it did it with Hitler. It would be absurd to think that Russia has lost the war or that its military is incompetent.

Additional quotes by Josep Borrell
Europe is a garden. We have built a garden... The rest of the world… is not exactly a garden. Most of the rest of the world is a jungle. The jungle could invade the garden. The gardeners should take care of it... [...] The jungle has a strong growth capacity… walls will never be high enough in order to protect the garden. The gardeners have to go to the jungle, Europeans have to be much more engaged with the rest of the world. Otherwise, the rest of the world will invade us, by different ways and means.

We cannot afford Russia to win this war. Otherwise the US and European interests will be very damaged. It is not a matter of generosity alone, It is not a matter of supporting Ukrainian people because we love Ukrainian people. It is in our own interest, and it is also in the interest of the US as a global player, someone who has to be perceived as a reliable partner, a security provider to the allies.
