UK, France reject NATO plan to increase military aid to Ukraine

"The United Kingdom, France, and other NATO states have blocked a plan under which each
member would contribute 0.25% of their GDP to military aid for
Ukraine.
Rutte did not name the members blocking the proposal, but a NATO source told the Telegraph that the opponents were the U.K., France, Canada, Italy, and Spain. "They’re not very enthusiastic about the idea," the source said.
The news comes on the heels of the U.K.'s surprise easing of Russian oil sanctions, dealing a further blow to London's image as one of Ukraine's most steadfast partners." KI
