EU preparing at least 6 billion in military aid for Ukraine, Politico says

Source: Politico via Yahoo News

Politico sources revealed that the package includes 1.5 million artillery shells, air defence systems and equipment for Ukrainian brigades.

They also state that the total value of the package could potentially rise to €10 billion after EU member states assess what they can provide to Kyiv.

European countries will have the option to contribute either financially or by supplying military equipment, with each country’s contribution proportionate to its gross national income, Politico reports.
