Russian FM spokesperson says Europe's 'coalition of the willing' resorting to financial pressure amid strain on resources

Moscow, Oct 31 (UNI) The "Coalition of the willing" is increasingly shifting its focus from purely military aid to Ukraine, and resorting more and more towards using financial pressure and economic leverage against Moscow, said Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova in a press briefing.
"As discussions in London have shown, this 'Coalition of the willing' is increasingly shifting its focus from purely military aid to the use of financial and economic leverage to put pressure on Russia," she stressed, as per state media.
According to Zakharova, the move reflects not only political recalibration, but also points to the growing socio-political fatigue, and the increasing drainage of resources in all those European countries supporting Kyiv.
