EU, UK, Norway Pledge Multi-Year Financial Military Aid Ukraine Against Russia

Ukraine continues to receive robust international support as it faces ongoing aggression from Russia. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer urged allies to use frozen Russian assets to bolster Ukraine's position in future peace talks and called for removing Russian oil and gas from the global market while providing Kyiv with long-range missiles. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy welcomed U.S. sanctions on Russian oil companies and emphasized the EU's financial backing for Ukraine through 2027, alongside strengthened sanctions against Russia, including a recently approved 19th package. Norway reaffirmed its military and energy support with a new aid package aimed at securing electricity and heating for Ukraine during the winter months, pledging to continue assistance into 2026. The collective efforts highlight a unified stance among Western allies to increase economic and military pressure on Russia while ensuring Ukraine's resilience through enhanced energy security and defense capabilities.
