Foreign ministers under the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, NATO, are due to meet Wednesday to discuss a €100 billion long-term funding for Ukraine’s military pushback against Russia.
Diplomats familiar with the matter say the proposals by NATO Secretary General, Jens Stoltenberg would give the Western alliance a more direct role in coordinating the supply of arms, ammunition and equipment to Ukraine as it fights Russia’s invasion.
This proposal would form the core of a two-day meeting in Brussels that will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the founding of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization and prepare for a summit of alliance leaders in Washington in July.
The meeting will provide insight into how far Ukraine’s European allies are willing to go to support Kyiv’s war effort as a military aid package for Ukraine worth some $60 billion remains stalled in the U.S. Congress.
