EU leaders agreed to the idea to reduce the risk of Ukraine facing a funding shortfall if Trump returns to the White House.plans to halve military aid for Ukraine next year, despite the possibility of Republican candidate Donald Trump returning to the White House and curbing support for Kyiv. According to a draft of the 2025 budget, German aid to Ukraine will decrease from around 8 billion euros in 2024 to 4 billion euros in 2025.
Officials say EU leaders agreed to the idea partly to reduce the risk of Ukraine facing a funding shortfall if Trump returns to the White House. Alarm spread across Europe this week after Trump chose Senator J.D. Vance, who opposes military aid for Ukraine and warned that Europe would need to rely less on the United States for defense, as his vice-presidential candidate.
Although Germany will cut military aid to Ukraine, it will meet NATO’s target of spending 2 percent of GDP on defense in 2025, totaling 75.3 billion euros. Days after Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine, Chancellor Olaf Scholz announced a “Zeitenwende”—a historic turning point—with a 100 billion euro special fund to modernize the military.
