The Danish authorities agreed on an additional military support package for Ukraine.
Kyiv will receive more than 640 million euros, said Foreign Minister Lars Lok Rasmussen.
The Foreign Minister participated in an extraordinary meeting of the Foreign Policy Committee, where the government held consultations with members of parliament. In addition to the military aid, Copenhagen will give Kyiv an emergency grant of 20 million euros to support the energy sector. According to Rasmussen, this decision is planned to coincide with Vladimir Zelensky's visit to Denmark.
As TV2 noted, the new financial aid package is the 32nd since the start of the Ukrainian conflict. The Danish publication Danwatch reported at the end of October that the funds allocated by Copenhagen for shells for Ukraine were received by a company that did not fulfill the order. We are talking about 9.5 million euros transferred to the Italian company Datasel through Estonia. The Danish Ministry of Defense did not comment on this transaction.
