NATO, EU Chiefs Unite on Military Mobility, Ukraine Aid

(MENAFN) Mark Rutte, NATO’s secretary general, and Andrius Kubilius, the European Commissioner for Defense and Space, pressed ahead on three linked priorities at NATO headquarters on Wednesday: faster military movement across Europe, expanded defense production and uninterrupted backing for Ukraine.

Kubilius briefed NATO ambassadors at the North Atlantic Council, where he set out a agenda centered on sharper military readiness, higher defense output and dependable support for Kyiv, the alliance said in a statement.

Moving troops and equipment into and across Europe emerged as a central area of cooperation. The alliance described that capability as vital to its deterrence and defense posture.

Delivering it will require clearing regulatory barriers and putting the right infrastructure in place to support any future deployments.

Kubilius detailed the work under way in this area. Rutte welcomed the headway made between NATO and the European Union but stressed that more effort is needed to guarantee military readiness.

On Ukraine, Rutte commended the EU’s move to let the Ukraine Support Loan finance assistance through NATO’s Prioritised Ukraine Requirements List (PURL). The mechanism continues to channel essential military equipment to Ukraine, including air defense systems.
