STOCKHOLM (Reuters) -Sweden is budgeting another 70 billion crowns ($7.47 billion) for military support to Ukraine over the coming two years, Defence Minister Pal Jonson said on Thursday, adding the country also stood ready to lend further support Poland if needed.
Much of the spending would be allocated through purchases managed by Sweden's defence material agency, for instance of additional Archer artillery systems, a type already being used by Ukrainian troops in the war with Russia.
