European Commission spokesman Thomas Regnier announced on Dec. 1 that 15 EU countries will send weapons worth billions of euros from the EU’s Security Action for Europe (SAFE) militarization program to Kiev, reported TASS. The national plans of the 15 EU states include support for Ukraine, he said at a briefing. He could not provide the exact amount, but said it was in billions, not millions of euros.
Earlier, TASS notes, the European Commission said that 19 out of 27 EU countries intend to participate in a €150 billion militarization program. Fifteen of the countries that joined the program agreed to send weapons to Ukraine. Regnier declined to say which countries refused to support Kiev.
