Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schof has announced that the Netherlands will set aside funds to continue supporting Ukraine next year, Western media report.
“The Dutch government will set aside EUR3.5 billion to continue supporting Ukraine in 2026,” Schof said.
According to the prime minister, the funds will ensure the continuity of Amsterdam’s support for Kyiv for the next year, “but if necessary, they can be used this year.”
Schof specified that EUR700 million of the funds would be spent on drones for Ukraine.
Media reports indicate that the previous Dutch government allocated a comparable amount to support Ukraine in 2025, but no exact figures are given.
