Ukraine seeks EU loan for missile defense
EuroNews reported that Ukraine has suggested to the European Union to use funding from a 90-billion-euro loan to purchase missile defense systems, including anti-ballistic missile systems, along with rockets and drones. The two sides are negotiating purchase lists that may require special approvals, with a focus on acquiring weapons from European companies or within Ukraine, though exceptions for purchases outside the Union are possible. This initiative comes amid increasing Ukrainian requests to bolster their defenses against Russian attacks. The defense portion of the EU loan amounts to approximately 60 billion euros, with 28.3 billion euros allocated for 2026 to support military equipment.
