Estonia is one of the leaders in military assistance to Ukraine. Since the start of the full-scale war, the country has provided more than €520 million to Ukrainians, which is approximately 1.4% of Estoniaʼs GDP.
This September, the country pledged to allocate at least 0.25% of its gross domestic product, which amounts to €100 million, to Ukraine in 2026.
In October, the Estonian company “Milrem Robotics”, in partnership with the Netherlands, reported the transfer of more than 150 THeMIS ground robotic complexes to Ukraine.
