The EU will allocate €3,3 billion to Ukraine on Friday, which for the first time can be spent on purchasing components for Patriots, – von der Leyen
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen confirmed the allocation of funds under the Ukraine Support Loan program and discussed with Zelensky the reforms needed for further financing, the European Commission website reports.
Overall, the program is planned for 2026–2027 years with total financing of up to €90 billion: €60 billion for defense, another €30 billion for budget support. With the latest tranche, Ukraine will have already received €11,7 billion of that amount.
Until recently, the EU had only allowed loan funds to be used to purchase components for the American Patriot, although originally all the money was supposed to be spent only on purchasing weapons produced in Europe.
