Overview
- Norway confirmed on Sunday that it will maintain an 85 billion Norwegian krone package (about $9–9.2 billion) for the 2027 fiscal year, matching the amount it provided in 2026.
- Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre said the support is broad and will cover military, humanitarian and financial needs while being guided by Ukrainian priorities.
- The government said the commitment has backing across Norway's Parliament and will be formalized through a declaration of strategic partnership with Ukraine.
- Støre framed the spending as an investment in European security as he visited Kyiv with leaders from Nordic and Baltic countries to show political support.
- The aid comes as both sides step up strikes and drone attacks on economic infrastructure, raising the stakes for Ukraine’s defense needs and for reconstruction planning under Norway’s Nansen Support Programme.
