Denmark Donates $250 Million in Military Aid to Ukraine

Denmark will donate military equipment and financial support worth $250 million to Ukraine. The country will also reduce its military presence in Iraq and instead focus on the Baltic countries, offering NATO a battalion to defend the region. The battalion is expected to consist of between 700 and 1,200 soldiers and will be deployed in Latvia between four and six months every year. Denmark will withdraw one of its security and escort units of about 105 soldiers in Iraq as of February next year but will continue to provide staff and advice to NATO's mission in Iraq.
