欧盟外交与安全政策高级代表卡娅·卡拉斯周五表示,欧盟成员国已达成协议,释放66亿欧元(约75亿美元)与乌克兰军事援助挂钩的欧盟资金。

European Union member countries have agreed a deal to release €6.6 billion (US$7.5 billion) in EU funds linked to military aid for Ukraine, EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said on Friday.

这些资金将来自欧洲和平基金,该基金用于欧盟成员国资助集团外国家的军事援助,同时也向成员国偿还其提供的军事援助费用。

The money will come from the European Peace Facility, a fund used by EU members to finance military aid to countries outside the bloc. It also refunds EU governments for military aid they have provided.

卡拉斯在社交媒体发文表示,在释放的资金中,9亿欧元将用于欧盟对乌克兰的军事援助任务,10亿欧元将用于新的联合装备采购。

Of the released funds, €900 million will go to the EU’s military assistance mission for Ukraine and €1 billion will fund new joint procurement of equipment, Kallas said in a post on social media.

她补充称,剩余的47亿欧元将用于偿还成员国,其中一些国家已表示将把其份额用于援助乌克兰。卡拉斯表示:“这对乌克兰是好消息,对俄罗斯是坏消息。

She added the remaining €4.7 billion will go to reimburse member states, some of whom have already said they would channel their share to Ukraine.

莫斯科的混合攻击试图恐吓欧洲削减对乌克兰的支持,但欧洲正在做相反的事情。”

“That’s good news for Ukraine and bad news for Russia,” Kallas said. “Moscow’s hybrid attacks try to intimidate Europe into scaling back its support for Ukraine. Europe is doing the opposite.” Money related to Ukraine stuck in the fund for months, initially blocked by the previous Hungarian government, under Russia-friendly leader Viktor Orban.

与乌克兰相关的资金在该基金中被冻结数月,最初是由亲俄领导人维克托·欧尔班领导的匈牙利前政府阻挠的。目前尚不清楚周五协议下释放的资金中有多少将直接惠及乌克兰。

“That’s good news for Ukraine and bad news for Russia,” Kallas said. “Moscow’s hybrid attacks try to intimidate Europe into scaling back its support for Ukraine. Europe is doing the opposite.” Money related to Ukraine stuck in the fund for months, initially blocked by the previous Hungarian government, under Russia-friendly leader Viktor Orban.

这将由各欧盟成员国政府决定,它们将把多少偿还款项用于向基辅提供新的军事援助。

It was unclear exactly how much of the funds to be released under Friday’s agreement would directly benefit Ukraine. It will be up to individual EU governments to decide how much of their refunds they allocate to fresh military aid for Kyiv.
