Finnish President Alexander Stubb has approved the decision to supply additional defense equipment to Ukraine, following a proposal from the government. This marks the 25th military aid package sent by Helsinki, according to the Finnish Ministry of Defense.

The new package is valued at approximately €118 million, bringing Finland’s total military assistance to Ukraine since the start of the war to €2.3 billion.

"The military situation in Ukraine remains serious. Finland, as promised, will continue to provide material support. Our message to our partners is not to give up," said Finnish Defense Minister Antti Häkkänen.

Details regarding the contents, timing, and delivery methods of the aid are not being disclosed for security reasons.

Finland's support for Ukraine

Since the start of the full-scale invasion, Finland has actively supported Ukraine in humanitarian, financial, and military-technical areas.

In April, Presidents Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Alexander Stubb signed a bilateral security agreement, ensuring long-term support from Helsinki and deepening cooperation between the two countries.
