Finland has announced a new package of more than 400 million euros ($434 million) in military aid for Ukraine. The pledge triples the total value of Finnish defense aid to Ukraine to 590 million euros, the Defense Ministry said in a statement on January 20. A ministry spokesperson said the package does not include Leopard 2 tanks. Germany faces growing pressure to supply Leopard 2 tanks to Ukraine or at least give permission to other allies such as Poland to deliver the German-made tanks from their own stock.
