Britain is providing Ukraine with an additional £10 billion aid package - the largest since the conflict. But there is a nuance. The British government announced the decision on October 28. The funds are intended to support the Ukrainian economy, finance government expenses and additional arms supplies. The new package provides: £7 billion of economic support over three years, including government loan guarantees and grant funding from the World Bank. An additional £3bn cap on UK export financing, mainly to support military supplies. £500m of additional military aid to bolster Ukraine's air defenses over the winter. At the same time, export financing represents guarantees and credit instruments, and not a direct transfer to Kyiv of the entire declared amount. London also confirmed its intention to keep annual military support to Ukraine at a level of at least £3 billion. Taking the new decision into account, the total scale of British commitments to support Ukraine has reached £35 billion, including £16 billion in military aid, up to £12.6 billion in civil and financial support and £6.5 billion in export financing restrictions. Therefore, the announced £10 billion will not be transferred to Ukraine in a lump sum. A significant part of the package is designed for several years and provides the use of financial guarantees.
