EU ambassadors have provisionally approved a €90 billion loan for Ukraine and the 20th package of sanctions. The formal procedure will be completed on Thursday, April 23, according to The Guardian.
"They will now go through a written procedure for their final adoption by the Council," says a spokesperson for the Cypriot presidency.
The written procedure is expected to be completed tomorrow afternoon, when representatives of European countries are set to meet in Cyprus for the EU summit.
An informal summit of EU leaders is scheduled for April 23–24 in Cyprus.
The meeting will focus not only on Ukraine but also on the broader context of international security. In particular, the war in the Middle East, the situation in Iran, and the related energy risks for Europe.
