NATO summit: Billions of pledges expected for Ukraine

At a NATO summit in Ankara, member states agreed to provide the Ukraine with new financial commitments for military support over the next two years. The planned commitment includes a minimum annual funding of 70 billion euros for military equipment, support, and training, totaling 140 billion euros. This amount includes a European Union aid package of around 60 billion euros for defense-related expenses until the end of 2027, leaving approximately 80 billion euros to be covered by NATO countries from their national budgets. Germany is expected to take the largest share due to the United States halting funding under former President Donald Trump. The final declaration from the summit emphasizes that European allies will need to take greater responsibility for the defense and deterrence of their continent, with the motto 'A stronger Europe in a stronger NATO.'
