German aid to Ukraine

Germany is the leader in providing assistance to Ukraine among European countries. In total, in 2024, the country allocated over 7 billion euros for supplying the Ukrainian military.

Recently, Germany also announced the transfer of Patriot batteries to Ukraine. This happened against the backdrop of constant calls from Ukrainian officials for the supply of such a system due to intensified attacks by Russian forces.
