BRUSSELS: NATO countries have delivered €65 billion in military aid to Ukraine and are currently developing a long-term program of military support, the alliance’s Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said at a news conference in Brussels on Monday.
"Allies have delivered 65 billion euros of military aid. And I welcome that modern battle tanks and other armored vehicles have started to arrive in Ukraine," Stoltenberg said ahead of a NATO foreign ministers meeting slated for April 4-5. "We will discuss how we can step up our support, including by continuing to strengthen Ukraine’s armed forces. And supporting their transition from Soviet-era to NATO equipment and doctrine. So I expect that ministers will agree to start work on developing a multi-year program for Ukraine," he added
According to Stoltenberg, NATO’s support for Kiev " is for the long-haul." This can make "a real difference" on the battle field, and "allow the Ukrainian forces to liberate more territory," he maintained.
