Germany will slash its military aid to Ukraine from around €8 billion (£6.7 billion) to around €4 billion by next year, a draft budget approved by the government showed. The projected aid cut comes amid concerns in Ukraine and among its European allies that United States funds may be reduced or even canceled if Donald Trump wins the presidency in November. Germany is Ukraine's second-largest military donor, after the US.
