The third and fourth of the EU economy will be ready for development.

Італія та Іспанія не готові підтримати збільшення військової допомоги Україні

On Monday, Italy and Spain announced their unwillingness to support the plan of the head of European diplomacy, Kaja Callas, to increase military assistance to Ukraine up to 40 billion euros in 2025.

As Reuters writes, members of the Ministry of Health of the two countries voiced the need for the government to first obtain the results of the relocation of US President Donald Trump and Russian dictator Putin and make it clear that new rules will be created before reaching the world.

Despite their status as the third and fourth economies of the EU, Italy and Spain are chasing after the obligation to help Ukraine, having spent less than 0.5% of their GDP on their consumption – the same as Slovenia, Portugal, Greece and Cyprus The absolute outsider is Ugorshchina, where over 2% of its gross product was converted from our countries Estonia, Denmark and Lithuania.

The Slovak Republic stated that we will not block the initiative of up to 40 billion euros for Ukraine, otherwise we will not earn our contribution to this sum.
