To survive anticipated aerial attacks this winter, Germany will send an additional Patriot air defense system to Ukraine.
Meanwhile, Canada will spend about $50M on the purchase of small arms and ammunition for Ukraine. The package includes 11,000 assault rifles and machine guns and more than nine million cartridges for them.
In turn, the Finnish government wants to increase aid to Ukraine by €95.7M. This is the maximum amount authorized for the purchase of military equipment for the country’s armed forces for the years 2024-2028 (to replace weapons and equipment sent to Ukraine).
Denmark will increase military support to Ukraine by more than $336M this year and approve the allocation of an additional $3.45B for 2025-2027.
Moreover, Lithuania plans to approve a three-year plan for military and other aid to Ukraine.
The Ministry of Defense of Germany has given assurances that the €100B special fund for strengthening defense capabilities will not be affected by the problems with the country’s budget caused by the €60B shortfall.
