  • Britain to allocate 2 billion pounds to Ukraine: what will the funds be used for

    Опубликовано: 2025-02-03 18:00:00

    Great Britain will provide Ukraine with up to 2 billion pounds to strengthen its defense capabilities and develop the military industry. The relevant bill was supported by the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine on January 31, which paves the way for the implementation of large-scale defense assistance from London.

    As stated by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, the key area of ​​​​use of funds is strengthening Ukraine's air defense. It is also planned to deploy repair facilities in Ukraine and localize the production of modern military equipment and weapons.

    Prime Minister of Ukraine Denys Shmyhal announced during a government meeting that, together with financial assistance, a bill on the ratification of the Framework Agreement between Ukraine and Great Britain was approved. This document defines the strategic partnership of the two countries in the field of defense and the development of the military-industrial complex.

    Within the framework of the agreement, British financial support will be directed to the purchase of modern air defense systems and missile weapons. In addition, part of the funds will go to the creation and arrangement of repair bases for servicing and modernizing military equipment directly on the territory of Ukraine.

    This step was another confirmation of the strategic partnership between Ukraine and the United Kingdom in the military sphere. Previously, London has repeatedly provided Kyiv with significant military assistance, including the supply of weapons, training of the Ukrainian military and financial support.

    Thus, the allocation of 2 billion pounds will not only contribute to the strengthening of the Ukrainian army, but will also lead to the development of its own defense production, which is critically important for the country's security and independence.
