Ukraine is expected to determine the priority types of weapons that it needs in the tranches of about $ 500 million, and NATO allies, coordinated by Secretary General Mark Rutte, then agree with each other who will provide or pay for goods from the list.
With this approach, NATO Allies hope to give Ukraine weapons worth $ 10 billion, the European official on the conditions of anonymity said Reuters.
“This is a starting point, and this is an ambitious goal we want. We are now moving in this direction. We support this ambition. We need such a volume,” the agency’s source said.
According to Reuters the American interlocutor, the discussed mechanism allows you to actually bypass long -term procedures for the sale of US weapons to replenish their own stocks. However, the NATO country will have to pay the United States in advance for accelerating reserves.
Technical details of such payment – in particular the mechanism of transferring funds – are still discussed, says Reuters.
It is known that the Congress has submitted to the PEACE ACT, which provides for the creation of a fund at the US Department of Finance, where NATO allies will be able to make funds to replenish the military equipment transferred to Ukraine.
Earlier on Friday, it became known that Germany will transmit two Patriot systems to Ukraine for several months, first and then other elements of the system.
