EU approves €90 billion loan as Ukraine aid scales up

The European Union has approved a €90 billion Ukraine Support Loan, marking a shift toward direct EU-level military assistance to Kyiv. Until now, military aid was considered a taboo for EU institutions, with only individual member states permitted to supply weapons. The move signals a major escalation in Brussels' role in supporting Ukraine's war effort.

Why now: The approval breaks a long-standing taboo by having the EU itself provide military aid rather than leaving it to member states.
