EU Council mobilizes EUR 4.9 bln for Ukraine through European Peace Facility

The European Council has allocated EUR 4.9 billion to Ukraine via the European Peace Facility, as announced in a press release. This funding includes partial reimbursement of military aid already provided by member states, totaling EUR 4.7 billion, and additional support for the EU Military Assistance Mission in Support of Ukraine, amounting to EUR 230 million.

These decisions come after EU member states agreed on a EUR 6.6 billion mobilization for Ukraine under the EPF in September 2026, with new military aid and reinforcement of EUMAM Ukraine in 2027. Consequently, the EU's total support for Ukraine through the European Peace Fund has now reached EUR 10.8 billion, encompassing EUR 9.9 billion for reimbursing military aid and EUR 950 million for military training under the EUMAM mission.

The EU Council emphasized the commitment to Ukraine's independence, sovereignty, and territorial integrity amid Russia's war of aggression.
