UK Pledges $2.5 Billion to Ukraine for Air Defense Amidst Domestic Concerns
The UK will grant Ukraine a substantial £2 billion to bolster its air defenses through the acquisition of advanced systems and missiles. This funding, formalized through a ratified framework agreement, also allocates resources for the establishment of crucial in-country repair hubs for military equipment. These initiatives aim to significantly enhance Ukraine’s defensive capabilities against ongoing aggression. The agreement builds upon existing substantial EU support, totaling US$50 billion since the full-scale invasion began.
