China must face ‘higher cost’ for backing Russia in Ukraine, says next EU foreign policy chief

Kaja Kallas says Ukraine’s victory in war is ‘a priority for us all’, adding that it is also in the US interest

China should face “a higher cost” for supporting Russia in the war against Ukraine, the EU’s incoming foreign policy chief, Kaja Kallas, has said.

The former Estonian prime minister was speaking to MEPs during a three-hour hearing before she takes office, when she listed Ukraine’s victory as a priority – stronger words than vaguer formulas of support voiced by some EU politicians.
