Ukraine: Armed Forces

Asked by James CartlidgeConservativeMinistry of DefenceTabled Answered 26 January 2026UIN 107403

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Defence, with reference to his Department's press release entitled UK accelerates £200 million of funding for deployment to Ukraine as air defence support stepped up, published on 9 January 2026, how much of that funding has been spent as of 21 January 2026.

Answered by Al Carns

The UK does not routinely provide detailed updates on the costs of supporting operations.

Planning for the Multinational Force for Ukraine continues at pace, but we will not be drawn into further details of any future UK Armed Forces deployment, due to the risk to operational security.
