Also they allocate funds for additional financing of the EU military mission to support Ukraine.
Today, 26 October, the Council of the European Union adopted a package of eight decisions that allow using funds to support Ukraine within the framework of the European Peace Facility (EPF).
This is stated in the EU Council press release.
These decisions provide for partial reimbursement through the European Peace Facility of the cost of military aid already provided by member states to Ukraine. The total amount of the reimbursement is 4,7 billion euros. In addition, it provides for additional funding for the EU Military Mission to provide assistance to Ukraine (EUMAM Ukraine) totaling 230 million euros.
These decisions are an important step toward implementing the political agreement reached by EU member states in 25 September 2026 of this year on mobilizing 6,6 billion euros for Ukraine within the European Peace Facility. The agreement envisaged providing Ukraine with 1 billion euros of new military aid, as well as further strengthening the EU Military Mission to assist Ukraine in 2027 year.
Today's decisions increase the total EU support to Ukraine under the European Peace Facility to 10,8 billion euros. Of this amount, 9,9 billion euros are allocated for reimbursing the cost of military aid provided by member states, and 950 million euros for military training under the EUMAM mission.
The European Peace Facility was created in March 2021 year to finance actions within the framework of the EU's common foreign and security policy aimed at preventing conflicts, preserving peace, and strengthening international security and stability.
In particular, the European Peace Facility enables the EU to finance actions aimed at increasing the capabilities of third countries, as well as regional and international organizations in the military and defense fields.
So far, the EU has provided Ukraine 6,4 billion euros from the European Peace Facility.
25 September 2025 year, EU member states agreed to mobilize a total of 6,6 billion euros, of which 4,9 billion euros were allocated pursuant to Council decisions adopted today.
Additionally, via the European Peace Facility, the EU directed 3,5 billion euros in emergency revenue obtained from frozen Russian assets to satisfy three priority needs of Ukraine: ammunition, air defense, and drones.
From these funds, military equipment worth over 1,5 billion euros was purchased directly for the Ukrainian defense industry.
