Germany approved arms exports: Ukraine will receive 74% of the allocated funds

According to preliminary data, final arms exports worth approximately €5.2 billion were issued in the first quarter of 2024.

Of this, 3.85 billion euros are allocated for military weapons and 1.4 billion euros for other types of weapons. The main recipient country was Ukraine, for which arms exports worth about 3.8 billion euros were approved.

“Ukraine still accounts for 74% of the total value of deliveries in the first quarter of 2024, and Ukraine remains the main recipient country of German arms exports,” said Secretary of State Sven Giegold.

The Secretary of State also announced Germany’s continued support for Ukraine.

"The figures reflect Germany’s ongoing and far-reaching support for Ukraine in its self-defense against Russia’s war of aggression, which is contrary to international law," Giegold said.
