The EU is preparing a comprehensive military aid package for Ukraine worth 6 billion euros, Politico reports .

The package will include artillery shells, air defense systems and other equipment to strengthen Ukraine’s position.

The aim is to have the aid package ready before the EU commissioners’ visit to Kyiv on February 24, the third anniversary of the Russian invasion.

According to EU diplomats, Hungary’s resistance could prevent the package from being unanimously adopted.
