NATO to let Ukraine buy weapons through its NSPA procurement agency

NATO will let Ukraine buy weapons through its own agency

NATO will allow Ukraine to buy weapons through the NATO Support and Procurement Agency (NSPA). “This will let Ukraine use a more structured route to the wide range of capabilities we offer: procurement expertise, support services and access to an established industrial base,” said agency spokeswoman Jacqueline Borsboom.

The move comes as relations between the United States and Ukraine deteriorate, after US President Donald Trump announced this month an agreement with Russian President Vladimir Putin on exporting Russian oil to bring down fuel prices in the US.

Ukraine has complained of disruptions in the sharing of some intelligence and of restrictions on the use of the Starshield satellite system, which the Ukrainian army relies on for battlefield communications. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that at a meeting in Oslo on Tuesday, participants agreed they want to resolve these issues.
