The Council of the EU adopted a set of eight decisions on Monday enabling €4.9 billion in funding for Ukraine under the European Peace Facility, its press release said. Of the total, €4.7 billion partially reimburses member states for military aid already delivered, and €230 million provides additional financing for the EU Military Assistance Mission in support of Ukraine. The Council said the decisions are a major step toward implementing the political agreement of September 25, 2026 to mobilise €6.6 billion under the facility, and bring overall EU support to Ukraine under the facility to €10.8 billion, of which €9.9 billion is reimbursement of delivered aid and €950 million is training through the mission.
