Sweden donates $1.2 billion aid package to Ukraine

Sweden's defence minister said on Thursday the Nordic country had agreed to donate its biggest aid package to Ukraine so far, worth 13.5 billion Swedish crowns ($1.23 billion).

The aid package is Sweden's 18th since Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022.

Was Sweden neutral at any point during this conflict?

You seriously think Sweden should continue being neutral and just accept what any country does to any other country or even themselves? Yeah, we survived WW2 well, but not in a good way. Sweden helping Ukraine is a good thing.
