EU leaders ended their Brussels summit without endorsing a proposal to raise €5 billion for Ukraine’s ammunition, despite backing from Kyiv and top EU officials.
The European Union summit in Brussels concluded without EU leaders endorsing a proposal to mobilise €5 billion for the procurement of 2 million ammunition rounds for Ukraine.
The plan, put forward by High Representative Kaja Kallas and supported by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, aimed to raise up to €40 billion in new military support for Ukraine. However, it failed to gain the necessary political backing.
Kallas proposed that a portion of military contributions be allocated based on each country’s economic weight, using gross national income (GNI) as the main indicator to ensure fair distribution.
This model faced strong resistance from larger member states, such as France and Italy, which would be expected to contribute significantly under the GNI-based system.
The summit’s conclusions on Ukraine only made a brief mention of the Kallas plan, without referring to any specific financial targets.
However, European Council President Antonio Costa expressed confidence that member states would increase their pledges, noting that €15 billion in additional support had already been pledged, and new commitments were expected in the coming weeks.
