Germany to Halve Military Aid to Ukraine in 2025
News summary

Germany has confirmed continued military support to Ukraine through 2024, delivering significant military equipment including armored vehicles, air defense systems, and artillery. However, budget constraints have led to a proposed halving of military aid to Ukraine in 2025, from €7.5 billion to €4 billion. Chancellor Olaf Scholz's government plans to rely on funds from frozen Russian assets to compensate for reduced federal budget allocations. This decision has sparked internal tensions within the German coalition government and raised concerns about the future sustainability of aid to Ukraine. German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier and other officials assert that Germany remains committed to supporting Ukraine despite the financial challenges. The proposed cuts and reliance on uncertain international funds have led to widespread speculation and criticism regarding Germany's long-term support strategy for Ukraine.
