Ukraine aims to maintain an army of 800,000 soldiers for at least 10 years after the end of the war. This is necessary to protect the country in the event of a new Russian attack. To maintain such an army, Kyiv is counting on long-term financial support from its allies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This was reported by<\/a> AFP, citing a high-ranking Ukrainian source.<\/p>\n

According to the agency, Ukraine wants to maintain a powerful army even after the cessation of hostilities, as the threat of new Russian aggression will remain.<\/p>\n

This is about 800,000 troops, who are supposed to ensure the country’s defense capability and deter Russia from new attacks. Ukraine plans to maintain this number of troops for at least the next decade after the end of the war.<\/p>\n

At the same time, maintaining such an army will require significant funds. That is why Kyiv is seeking to agree with Western partners on financial assistance for this period.<\/p>\n

The issue of the size of the Ukrainian army and its financing is being raised within the framework of negotiations on security guarantees after the end of the war.<\/p>\n

In particular, on November 10-11, negotiations between Ukraine, the United States, and Russia took place in Abu Dhabi<\/a> . The parties discussed possible mechanisms for guaranteeing Ukraine’s security and the future European security system.<\/p>\n

Ukraine, the United States, European partners, and NATO also reaffirmed their shared commitment to creating a strong security system in Europe after the war.<\/p>\n

Currently, there are no final agreements on financing the 800,000-strong Ukrainian army for ten years.<\/p>\n
