It is also one of its elements to provide Member States to 150 billion euros for joint procurement of military equipment by EU Member States. “It should be military equipment produced in the EU, the European economic space, or what is produced in Ukraine,” the European Commissar reminded.
Answering the question “Euro Pravda”, Dombrovskis stressed that the equipment purchased on this mechanism can be provided for the Armed Forces.
“This can be used to provide military support to Ukraine,” he said.
The scheme proposed by the European Commission does not impose on a member states of a share of funding transferred to the Armed Forces, but contains measures that will allow the transfer of weapons to Ukraine. “Giving EU Member States additional fiscal flexibility will certainly simplify the adoption of such decisions by EU Member States,” he explained.
“We do not clarify the type of goods – it can be ammunition, it can be artillery, etc.,” the Eurochoolmist added.
It was reported that Dombrovskis in Kiev also told how the EU will assist the budget of Ukraine by the end of 2025.
Note that the White Book of the EU on defense provides for the transfer of 2 million shells for Ukraine annually.
