The funds are expected to support joint projects with Ukrainian defence companies, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"w6asjq_TextBase _85PZeG_Text\" data-d-component=\"text\">Preliminary estimates suggest that Ukraine\u2019s defence industry could receive around \u20ac20 billion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"w6asjq_TextBase _85PZeG_Text\" data-d-component=\"text\">The Security Action for Europe (SAFE) programme was approved by the EU in May 2025. It provides preferential loans from the EU fund for defence investments, strengthening security, and developing and manufacturing weapons.<\/p>\n<p class=\"w6asjq_TextBase _85PZeG_Text\" data-d-component=\"text\">As of 12 August, 19 of the 27 EU member states had joined SAFE. Germany, for example, announced from the outset that it would not take the funds and would finance its rearmament independently.<\/p>\n<p class=\"w6asjq_TextBase _85PZeG_Text\" data-d-component=\"text\">According to estimates by The Moscow Times, a total of \u20ac122.6 billion has already been approved and allocated. Taking into account possible funding for Italy, this amount could rise to approximately \u20ac130 billion.<\/p>\n<p class=\"w6asjq_TextBase _85PZeG_Text\" data-d-component=\"text\">The remaining funds are planned to be directed towards a new programme of joint projects with Ukrainian defence companies, von der Leyen said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":152202,"menu_order":0,"template":"","newscat":[9],"newstag":[],"issues":[],"class_list":["post-152201","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","newscat-novosti"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/152201","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/152202"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=152201"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"newscat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newscat?post=152201"},{"taxonomy":"newstag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newstag?post=152201"},{"taxonomy":"issues","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ldaily.ua\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/issues?post=152201"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
