50 days for upgrading: London: Faster arms deliveries for Kyiv

Germany, Great Britain and other allies want to significantly accelerate arms deliveries to Ukraine. This was announced by the Ministry of Defense in London before a virtual meeting of the so-called Ukraine contact group. Accordingly, the next 50 days should be used to provide Kiev as many weapons as possible.

US President Donald Trump had threatened Russia with high tariffs last week if a ceasefire or a peace agreement should not come about within 50 days. This period should now be used to upgrade Ukraine as much as possible.

Germany gives money, Great Britain buys a

Among other things, Great Britain will quickly get air defense ammunition worth 170 million euros for Ukraine, the statement from London said. The money for this should come from Germany. In the past two months alone, ammunition for air defense and for the artillery worth £ 150 million (around 173 million euros) was delivered for Ukraine.

The Ukraine contact group had to put a 50-day initiative to upgrade the Ukraine at the Ukraine ultimatum in order to “strengthen Ukraine on the battlefield and force Putin to the negotiating table,” said Healey according to the message.

The Ukraine contact group of supporters Kiev consists of around 50 countries, including both NATO countries and other countries. It is also referred to as the “Ramstein Group”, as many meetings took place at the Ramstein rack.
