Ukraine allies pledge €21 billion in military aid as war continues


Ukraine’s allies on Friday pledged military aid worth €21 billion ($23.8 billion) as the country continues to be under attack from Russia, UK Defence Secretary John Healey announced.

“I’m impressed and grateful for the announcements and pledges, for the support packages from partners around the world”, said acting German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius.

The British and German ministers co-chaired an international meeting to coordinate further military aid for Ukraine at NATO headquarters in Brussels.

“This will have an impact on the battlefield for sure already this year,” Pistorius said.

“Peace in Ukraine appears to be out of reach in the immediate future,” he said. “We will ensure that Ukraine continues to benefit from our joint military support. Russia needs to understand that Ukraine is able to go on fighting and we will support it.”
