Norway will maintain its current level of support for Ukraine in 2027 at about $9 billion, Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said during a speech in Kyiv marking Ukraine’s National Flag Day.
Norway has committed to maintaining its current level of support for Ukraine, amounting to approximately $9 billion, in the year 2027, according to Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre. This support encompasses military, humanitarian, and financial aid, as stated in Støre's speech in Kyiv on Ukraine's National Flag Day.
Støre emphasized that Ukraine's struggle is for freedom, independence, and the right to determine its future, asserting that these principles are fundamental to all democracies. He also affirmed that all members of Norway's parliament are in agreement with continuing aid to Ukraine. Despite the war, Støre clarified that Ukraine is a nation with a profound history and a culture that has endured every attempt to suppress it, a fact worth emphasizing on a day like this.
Støre concluded that supporting and rebuilding Ukraine is not merely aid but an investment in Europe's security. Støre joined other foreign leaders, including Estonia's Prime Minister Kristers Michal, Latvia's Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs, Denmark's Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, Lithuania's President Gitanas Nausėda, and Finland's President Alexander Stubb, in visiting Kyiv.
