By
Chris Powers
Summary
NATO's 32 member countries pledged 70 billion euros ($80 billion) in defense aid to Ukraine at the July 8 summit, with commitments to deliver the same in 2027. However, much of this pledge is drawn from existing commitments, including 28.3 billion euros already scheduled by the EU for Kyiv's defense needs in 2024. The financial pledges are critical as Ukraine faces an almost 20 billion-euro hole in its 2026 defense budget.
