Washington — Latvia's Prime Minister Krisjanis Karins has warned European and U.S. leaders not to succumb to "war weariness" as Russia's war in Ukraine grinds on, helping to drive energy and food prices higher around the world. In an interview with CBS News, Karins said leaders of countries that aren't experiencing war first-hand can become "tired or less committed to aiding the country which is in need."
He urged countries struggling with inflation to accept it as a small price to pay, as "Ukrainians are paying with their lives."
This week, NATO announced the military alliance's high-readiness forces would be significantly increased from 40,000 to more than 300,000 troops, with a focus on increasing the Eastern flank, close to the EU's borders with Russia.
