Finland Announces 28th Military Aid Package for Ukraine

European Union states are negotiating a proposal to potentially double their military aid to Ukraine, with discussions set to take place among foreign ministers next week. The draft suggests increasing aid up to €40 billion from last year's €20 billion, amid concerns over U.S. support following President Trump's temporary halt of military aid to Ukraine. Meanwhile, Finland has announced its 28th military aid package for Ukraine, valued at approximately €200 million, including artillery ammunition, as part of a broader defense cooperation agreement. This announcement reflects Finland's commitment to support Ukraine's defense efforts, with an overall aid contribution now totaling €3.3 billion. Additionally, Finland is providing €16 million in humanitarian aid through the UN and Red Cross, emphasizing the enduring humanitarian needs in Ukraine. These developments come as Finland and other European countries reinforce their support for Ukraine amidst ongoing Russian aggression.
