Von der Leyen: 'shocked and appalled' by 'vicious attack on Kyiv'

The prime minister of Estonia, Kaja Kallas, and Ursula von der Leyen, president of the European Commission, have posted a joint video from the Narva border crossing between Estonia and Russia, Qazet.az reports according to V.D. Leyen. In the clip, von der Leyen says:

I am shocked and appalled by the vicious attack on Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities. Russia once again has shown to the world what it stands for – it is terror and brutality. Those who are responsible have to be held accountable. We are mourning the victims, and I send my heartfelt condolences to our Ukrainian friends. I know Ukrainians will not be intimidated, and Ukrainians know that we will stand by their side as long as it takes.
