Sweden is providing Ukraine with the largest military aid package worth $1.2 billion.
This was stated by Swedish Defense Minister Paul Johnson, Censor.NET reports.
The country has agreed to provide Ukraine with the largest aid package in the amount of 13.5 billion Swedish kronor (1.23 billion dollars).
It is noted that this aid package is the 18th since the beginning of Russia's large-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
As Defense Minister Jonson said at a press conference, the government is negotiating with suppliers in Sweden and Europe to supply priority equipment such as artillery and drones.
The package will include 16 combat boats, 1,500 anti-tank missiles, 146 trucks, and 200 anti-tank grenade launchers.
About $90 million will also go to the production of Ukrainian long-range missiles and drones.
