UK to allocate additional $1.6 billion of military aid to Ukraine: details

Additional expenses for Ukraine will be allocated from the reserve used by the government for emergencies.

The UK will provide Ukraine with another 1.3 billion pounds ($1.6 billion – ed.) of military assistance.

Reuters writes about this, this is stated in a government statement.

These additional funds for Ukraine will come from a reserve used by the British government for emergencies.

Also in May 2022, Prime Minister Boris Johnson will hold a meeting with leading defense companies to increase production due to increased demand caused by the war in Ukraine.

We add that the new tranche is almost twice the amount of the UK’s preliminary spending on the Ukrainian state. This will be the highest level of military payments since the conflicts, in particular in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Recall that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and British Prime Minister Boris Johnson once again had a conversation and discussed support for the defense capability of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. During the conversation, in particular, the two leaders talked about additional military assistance to Ukraine and bringing the guilty Russian soldiers to justice for the atrocities in Ukraine.
