Gram: Norway is considering donating more weapons to Ukraine
The Norwegian government is considering further arms deliveries to Ukraine, Minister of Defense Bjørn Arild Gram (SP) confirmed on Wednesday.
Gram did not provide details on the type of weapons or military equipment in question.
“We understand that there is a need for further donations. Norway has provided weapons in several rounds, and the previous shipment was heavy artillery,” Gram said.
He says there is close cooperation between the donor countries. And they are also in close contact with Ukraine so that they have a good overview of what the country needs.
“We are considering further deliveries,” Gram said, adding that the government also contributes financial support via a British fund so that Ukraine can buy weapons itself.
The Norwegian Minister of Defense met his British colleague Ben Wallace in Oslo on Wednesday, as well as leaders from the ten countries participating in the Joint Expeditionary Force exercise.
