Up to €20 billion in surplus EU SAFE funds could go to Ukraine

Original: Up to €20 bln of surplus SAFE funding could benefit Ukraine

Up to €20 billion in unallocated funds from the EU's SAFE defence instrument could be directed to Ukraine, according to TVP World reporting. The Security Action for Europe programme, a €150 billion loan facility for joint defence procurement, has seen slower uptake by member states than planned, leaving surplus cash that Brussels is considering channeling toward Kyiv's defence needs as the war with Russia continues.

Why now: Talk of redirecting surplus EU defence money comes as Ukraine faces continued funding pressure and questions over long-term Western military support.
