European allies roundly condemned Russian airstrikes that hit Kyiv and other major Ukrainian cities on Monday morning.
“Deeply shocked by Russia’s attacks on civilians in #Kyiv and other cities in Ukraine. Such acts have no place in (the) 21st century. I condemn them in the strongest possible terms,” the European Union's foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell said.
"We stand with Ukraine. Additional military support from the EU is on its way,” Borrell tweeted Monday.
Belgium’s Prime Minister Alexander De Croo tweeted that the "bombardment of Kyiv and of civilian targets in many other cities is a reprehensible act by Russia.
