EU to split Ukraine financial support with 30 billion euros for budget, 60 billion for military
The European Commission's President Ursula von der Leyen said on Wednesday the EU intends to split the 90 billion euro ($104.89 billion) financial support approved for Ukraine into one third for its general budget and two thirds for military supplies.
"We take really a next step in our support to build a stronger and more stable Ukraine," she said in a news conference in Brussels.
The 60 billion euros to be spent on military gears will be used mainly to buy equipment from the EU and EFTA countries, she said.
