2 min read

Germany's foreign minister Johann Wadephul told media that NATO allies are preparing to pledge €140 billion ($160 billion) in support for Ukraine for 2026 and the following year, drawn solely from European and Canadian contributions. He framed the planned commitment as a clear signal to Moscow that Kyiv's backers are not wavering and said recent battlefield developments show Ukraine can strike Russia more heavily, demonstrating Western support is having an impact. The announcement precedes the NATO Ankara summit and is intended to increase pressure on Russia to seek negotiations.
