The countries announced USD 500 million in funding for the purchase of military equipment and ammunition for Ukraine. The supplies, sourced from the United States, will be delivered under NATO’s "Priority Ukraine Requirements List" (PURL).
"Our Nordic and Baltic Allies are increasing funding for the next package of critical military equipment for Ukraine. This equipment is essential as Ukraine enters the winter months, and deliveries under PURL are already reaching the country. NATO members will continue providing Ukraine with the equipment and supplies it needs," NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte said.
