Watch it LIVE here:

#Raisina2022

.@RauZbigniew: #Poland is opening its borders and hearts to the #Ukrainian refugees. The social composition of the #refugees includes women and children dominantly, but this is a challenge for us as it is hard to accommodate such a large population.

#Raisina2022

Jean Asselborn (@MFA_Lu): The efficiency of financial #sanctions only shows up after a few months. We had to adopt European sanctions to let #Russia know about the consequences of such aggression.

#Raisina2022

.@GLandsbergis: If #Putin manages to change the borders of a sovereign country, it could mean that he could do it elsewhere too. Aggression is never acceptable. There is nothing more important than #Ukraine winning the war.

#Raisina2022

.@GLandsbergis: The question is whether #sanctions can make #Kremlin change its course and at the moment, I do not believe that they are impacting #Russia’s decision-making process.

#Raisina2022

.@londonvinjamuri: Many of us do not want to believe that the #Ukrainewar could be prolonged. But if that proves to be the case, we must build unity by standing up for the basic cause of protecting sovereignty.

#Raisina2022

.@RachelRizzo: Strategic #sovereignty means not relying on #Russia for your energy, the US for your security, and #China for corporate profits.

#Raisina2022

.@RachelRizzo: #Europe has shown immense solidarity in enforcing #sanctions. #Germany has also extended funding, but the longer the war goes on, the more important question would be where are we spending the political capital extended by other countries for the war.

#Raisina2022

.@RauZbigniew: The #EU is trying to do their best according to its own assessment of what is at stake in the #Ukrainewar. The predominant consensus is that there is a very high level of unity and understanding.

#Raisina2022

.@RauZbigniew: But after 60 days of the #Ukrainian war, the dilemma faced by the #European leaders is how to reconcile human rights and international humanitarian law on one side, and preserve the economic well-being of the society, on the other.
