Finland is helping Ukraine with the supply of defense equipment

An agreement between Finland and the European Commission on the supply of defense equipment to Ukraine using funds from frozen Russian assets has been reached. Over 90 million euros will be spent on the procurement of heavy ammunition.

Products are being procured from Finnish industry to stimulate employment domestically and are being sent to Ukraine to aid in its defense. I am very pleased with the outcome.'
