What help Ukraine will receive from Denmark
On October 26, the Danish government officially announced the provision of a new package of military aid to our country in the amount of 3.7 billion Danish kroner, or about 520 million dollars.
It was formed after a meeting between the defence ministers of Denmark and Ukraine.
This package will include:
tanks T-72EA, BMP-2;
artillery ammunition;
drones;
small arms;
armoured repair and evacuation vehicles.
According to the Danish authorities, this equipment and ammunition will be crucial for the Armed Forces directly on the battlefield.
The head of the country's Ministry of Defense Troels Lund Poulsen drew attention to the fact that the aid package was formed after a meeting with his Ukrainian colleague Rustem Umyerov.
Today's aid confirms that Ukraine can count on Denmark's unwavering support in its fight for freedom... It also sends an important signal to both Ukraine and Russia that we are not losing focus, even though much of the world's attention is focused on Israel these days and Palestine, he said.
