German Chancellor Olaf Scholz pledges long-term support for Ukraine, doubles military aid

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz said that his government has a long-term strategy to support Ukraine.

He assured that the German authorities will not weaken their efforts to provide assistance to Kyiv.

“We are also clear that we need to be prepared for the long-term conflict that is going on there,” he said.

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s ruling coalition previously agreed to double military aid to Ukraine next year to 8 billion euros. In addition, the Bundestag budget committee, according to Bloomberg, should approve the allocation of an additional 4 billion euros next week.

Formerly a deputy of the Verkhovna Rada Yaroslav Zheleznyak reported on the adoption by the Parliament of Ukraine of the draft budget for 2024 with a deficit of 1.57 trillion hryvnia (more than 43 billion dollars).
