Norway, Sweden, and Denmark pledged to collectively contribute $500 million to an initiative aimed at providing U.S.-made weapons to Ukraine, the Norwegian government said on Tuesday.
The countries are among the first to finance military support packages for Ukraine, coordinated through NATO’s Prioritized Ukraine Requirement List (PURL) initiative. NATO allies will send materiel, including munitions for Patriot systems, to bolster Ukraine’s air defenses.
