“I will propose to member states a fund that will help Ukraine develop new tools of this war, namely unmanned aerial vehicles and artificial intelligence,” Borrell said.

The high representative of the EU believes that the outcome of the war will be determined mainly at the expense of communication and guidance systems.

“These are small drones with a flight range of 20 kilometers, they carry two kilograms of explosives, their cost is very low and you do not need more to destroy a tank,” he emphasized.

The head of EU diplomacy added that everything is now clearly visible thanks to drones on the front line: “Tanks are used as static guns, they do not go out into open space. Either a drone falls on them or a mine is placed under them. Everything is visible on the battlefield.”

According to Borrell, technologies based on a different type of warfare now need to be developed.

“The alternative to defense in the face of major attacks by small drones that look like a swarm of hornets is to disrupt the communication system. If you can control the spectrum, the drone is useless. We need to carry classical ammunition and support it with modern weapons. Borrell said, “There are aspects of war such as artificial intelligence. It is necessary to develop technologies based on a different type of warfare. “And they’re doing it with great skill so far, but they need more,” he said.

As reported, on February 24, 2022, the Russian Federation launched a full-scale war against Ukraine. Since the beginning of the aggression, the EU and its member states have provided Ukraine with unprecedented political, economic, financial, military and humanitarian assistance, the total amount of which has already reached 90 billion euros.
