The UK and Germany are spearheading a new international push to rapidly increase military aid to Ukraine, launching a '50-day drive' to deliver air defense systems, ammunition, and other weaponry.
This initiative comes after former US President Donald Trump issued a 50-day ultimatum to Russia to end the war, threatening severe consequences if Moscow does not comply. Over 50 countries participated in the latest Ramstein-format meeting, where allies pledged new support, including 220,000 Gepard shells and advanced air defense equipment. The campaign aims to pressure Russia into negotiations by significantly strengthening Ukraine's defenses in a short timeframe.
The UK is also considering joining efforts to purchase US weapons for Ukraine, signaling increased transatlantic cooperation.
