Europe marked four years since Russia\u2019s full-scale invasion with a high-profile show of solidarity in Kyiv on Tuesday. Ursula von der Leyen and Ant\u00f3nio Costa stood alongside Volodymyr Zelenskyy \u2014 but the absence of some key leaders raised quiet questions in Ukraine about who showed up, and who didn\u2019t.<\/p>\n
Zoya Sheftalovich was on the ground in Kyiv for the anniversary events. She joins Ian Wishart to describe the mood in the city, what was said behind closed doors, and how European leaders are discussing ways to deal with attempts by Hungary and Slovakia to block a vital EU loan for Ukraine and the next package of sanctions against Russia.<\/p>\n
