Arrivals at Ukraine funding conference in Denmark

Host ministers arrived at Christiansborg Palace in Denmark's capital this morning for the Copenhagen Conference, a daylong event aimed at strengthening the long-term support for Ukraine with discussions on financing, weapon production, training and demining.

Danish Defense Minister Morten is hosting the event along with his British and Ukrainian counterparts. Before the conference opened, Denmark announced it would be sending 130 Danish soldiers to the UK to help train Ukrainian military. At the conference, Denmark plans to announce another 820 million DKK (Danish Krone), over $113 million dollars towards the financing of weapons and training, bringing total Danish donations to over 3 billion DKK, or almost $416 million dollars.
