Belgium to inject another billion euros into its army - L'Echo
The Belgian government agreed a few hours before a NATO summit to inject an extra billion euros in its defence forces, on top of 10 billion euros already agreed, according to Belgian newspaper l'Echo, a move prompted by the war in Ukraine. The new investments aim at reinforcing the Belgian defence by 2030, including developing a cybersecurity unit in the Belgian army, replenishing stocks of fuel and munitions, military equipment and supplies and improving intelligence and communication systems, the paper said.
