In brief
Poland will stop contributing for now to PURL, which funds US weapons purchases for Ukraine. Prime Minister Donald Tusk cited the budget deficit and Poland’s own defence spending.
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk said he had informed NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte that Poland would make no contributions to PURL for now, UNIAN reported. Tusk announced the decision after speaking with Rutte, citing a substantial state budget deficit and high domestic defence spending.
The decision concerns funding for purchases of American weapons through PURL and does not mean Poland is ending all military assistance to Ukraine, UNIAN said.
According to UNIAN, Poland joined PURL in late 2025, allocating $100 million for US weapons for Ukraine. The reports did not specify how long the pause would last.
