Finland will send Ukraine its 31st defense aid package, a decision approved by the President on January 16 at the government’s proposal, Defense Minister Antti Häkkänen said.
The Ministry of Defense put the value of the new package at about €98 million. In total, Finland has provided €3.1 billion in defense assistance to Ukraine.
Häkkänen said the package was assembled on an accelerated timeline to meet the most critical needs. He added that a 2026 procurement program to support Ukraine, in cooperation with Finland’s defense industry, is proceeding as planned.
For security reasons, officials are not disclosing the exact contents of the aid, or the delivery methods and timelines. The package was calibrated to reflect both Ukraine’s needs and the resources of the Finnish Defense Forces.
Earlier, media reported that Finland has classified information related to arms exports. Israel is among the countries that requested confidentiality, but journalists say most secret weapons deliveries are headed to Ukraine.
