Germany is reportedly planning to reduce its military aid to Ukraine by 94% over the next three years, decreasing support from £6.8 billion to £425 million by 2027, according to a report in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung. The report has led to accusations of betrayal in Berlin, although there has been no official response from Chancellor Olaf Scholz or the ruling coalition. In Kyiv, the report is being dismissed as manipulation by pro-Russian factions. However, Germany was already expected to halve its aid to Ukraine next year, raising concerns about the future of its support amid the ongoing conflict with Russia.
