Hot on the heels of the huge US and UK aid packages for Ukraine last week, Deputy PM/Defence Minister Richard Marles says Oz will also send another $100 million of military funding. Marles made the announcement during a visit to the western Ukrainian city of Lviv over the weekend, where he met with Ukraine’s PM Denys Shmyhal and other senior leaders. The package takes Australia’s total support to over $1 billion since Russia’s invasion began more than 2 years ago – but Marles said it won’t be the last support offered. “We will stand with Ukraine for the long term, until Ukraine is able to resolve this war on its terms,” he said. In response, the Coalition “welcomed” the announcement but questioned where the money would come from in Australia’s budget. Reports say the aid will bring a vital boost to Ukraine’s forces struggling with weapons shortages on the frontline.
