Finland to Use Proceeds From Frozen Russian Assets to Supply Ammunition to Ukraine

  • On May 19, 2025, Finland announced it will supply Ukraine with €90 million worth of heavy ammunition funded through frozen Russian assets under an EU agreement.
  • This initiative stems from frozen Russian state assets immobilized after Russia's 2022 invasion of Ukraine, with the EU deciding to use accrued interest to support Ukraine's defense.
  • Finland will procure ammunition exclusively from its domestic defense industry to boost local employment while supporting Ukraine's urgent need for artillery rounds.
  • Defence Minister Antti Häkkänen expressed satisfaction with the agreement, highlighting that it supports both Ukraine's defense needs and Finland's domestic defense industry.
  • The delivery strengthens Ukraine's military capacity as part of a broader EU plan, while Finland positions itself as a key NATO member countering Russian aggression.
