Ukraine has been trying to stop the invasion of russia. A time in which, first of all, he was able to avoid the attempted occupation of practically half of the country, and then gradually regained ground. Even so, Moscow’s Army still has a very important part of five Ukrainian regions in its possession, what is necessary to have created a land corridor with the also invaded – although in 2014 – Crimean peninsula.
The ukrainian resistance has been based for some time on the military aid that comes from Western and some Asian countries. Mainly from USAbut also from the countries of the European Union. Without this help, it would have been impossible for the Kiev Government to provide its professional army and hundreds of thousands of mobilization units with the necessary weapons and equipment.

This money will not be delivered cold and hard to Ukraine, but just as it was being done until now it will serve to EU member countries finance the delivery of military material to the kyiv Government depending on the needs that it expresses. Everything is also in line with the approval of needs that is made in the Contact Group for the Defense of Ukraine that NATO meets in Ramstein (Germany).
The creation of this fund within the EU has been in the works for several months, to renew the one that was initially launched at the beginning of the conflict.

As an example, the Informal Meeting of EU Defense Ministers (RIM) in Toledo on August 30 still anticipated that this fund would be only 20 billion in four years.
The heads of State and Government of the European Union have managed to unanimously approve the fund thanks to the fact that they have managed lift the veto that Hungary had announced, a country whose leader is many times closer to the international political vision of Russia or Turkey than to that of the rest of the EU members. Even so, the rest of the countries have given in to the demand that each year the material sent to Ukraine and what use has been made of it be audited, although it has been rejected that this aid be voted on year by year.
