At the request of NATO and Poland, a Royal Australian Air Force E-7A Wedgetail aircraft will deploy to Europe in August to help protect a vital international gateway for humanitarian and military assistance into Ukraine.

This includes new targeted financial sanctions and travel bans on 37 individuals, and targeted financial sanctions on seven entities.

These sanctions target Russia’s defence, energy, transport, insurance, electronics and finance sectors, as well as promulgators of Russian disinformation and propaganda.

During the Summit, Australia also signed an agreement with the NATO Support and Procurement Organisation (NSPO). The NSPO Agreement strengthens Australia’s cooperation with NATO partners on capability acquisition, systems support and logistics.

Under the agreement, the Australian Defence Force will be able to gain access to collaborative procurement efforts with NATO partners.

The new partnership also unlocks wider opportunities for Australian defence industry to access new markets across NATO supply chains.
