Norway has donated another 2,000 anti-tank weapons to Ukraine

The Norwegian government has donated an additional 2,000 M72 anti-tank weapons to Ukraine so that the country can defend itself against Russia’s invasion.

” Ukraine has, since the invasion began, been asking several countries for military equipment so that they can defend themselves against Russian forces that attack both civilian and military targets. Norway has, like several other countries, responded with an additional donation of anti-tank weapons that can be used against the invasion forces,” Minister of Defense Odd Roger Enoksen (SP) said.

He stressed that the government strongly condemned Russia’s attacks. Norway has previously sent a similar amount of anti-tank weapons to Ukraine.

“Ukraine depends on arms support from other countries to continue opposing Russia’s attacks, which violate international law. If Ukraine succeeds in repelling Russia’s attack, it will ensure Ukrainian sovereignty and help maintain the norm of peaceful conflict resolution and respect for borders in Europe,” Enoksen added.

Russia has warned countries against sending weapons to Ukraine.

“Russia does not have the right to direct attacks on Norway on the basis of the weapons support we have contributed to Ukraine’s exercise of self-defense,” Foreign Minister Anniken Huitfeldt (AP) stated recently.
