Former Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas is poised to become the new EU Foreign Affairs Representative after addressing EU lawmakers in Brussels. Advocating for strong support for Ukraine against Russia, she emphasized the need for ongoing military, financial, and humanitarian assistance. Kallas underscored the influence of China’s support for Russia and hinted at possible sanctions against Chinese firms supplying military goods. She called for a more assertive EU stance, particularly regarding economic matters with China and the United States. Kallas will assume her role in December, with a challenging five-year term ahead.
