MADRID (Associated Press) – The last day of the NATO summit in Madrid: Sweden plans to send additional military support to Ukraine, including anti-tank weapons, arms support and demining equipment that Kyiv says it has requested.
The device is worth about 500 million kronor ($49 million).
“It is important that the support for Ukraine from the democratic countries in Europe is continuous and long-term,” the Swedish news agency TT quoted Defense Minister Peter Hultqvist as saying.
He did not say when and how the equipment would be delivered, but said: “It is in everyone’s interest that it be delivered as quickly as possible.”
At this week’s NATO summit, Sweden was invited to join the Western military alliance.
