BBuffalox lemmy.world40% is from already promised funds, but that's still €42 Billion Euro in new funding! The financial pledges are essential for Ukraine, which the Kyiv Independent previously reported was facing an almost 20 billion-euro hole Nice that they are covered now. 😎 substituting dollar for euro was not the only sign in the conclusions that the summit had become more Europe-focused. Yes Europe helped by Canada are carrying by far the major part of this. The conclusions contain three distinct references to "European allies and Canada," or rather, NATO minus the United States. Sadly USA is not a very good ally anymore. ☹️5Reply
