The information was provided by Reuters, which had access to the draft German budget for 2025. According to the German government, the reduction in aid to Ukraine will be compensated by 50 billion euros coming from Russian assets frozen by the G7.
“Ukraine’s financing is secured for the foreseeable future thanks to European instruments and G7 loans,” the finance minister said.
Germany, whose military stockpiles have been battered by more than two decades of cuts in investment by successive governments, has nonetheless been one of the countries that has sent Kyiv the most aid, including three Patriot missile systems. Despite the cuts, Berlin has pledged to meet NATO’s defense investment target of 2% of GDP.
